Which means that the cow will starve to death

I thought he got Jobs to let him see what he was developing for Xerox (windows) and just basically copied the concept. But it's been a minute.

Gates never actually did any programming. He built Microsoft by buying someone else's product.
That's a very interesting point, other animals and mainly pigs and chickens release all kinds of gases yet they are never mentionedPCC_80 said:
They keep talking about cattle, but they never bring up horses, pigs, sheep, dogs, cats, chickens or any other animals people raise and keep around the world. They all fart and **** and allegedly unnecessarily pollute the environment. Why ? ? ?
My guess is that they see raising cattle generally requires lots of land. They probably want the land. So putting cattle ranchers out of business will allow them to buy the land cheap.
Just another plan for the rich to steal from the not so rich.

Sources of methaneQuote:Quote:
Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas that traps heat 28 times more effectively than carbon dioxide over a 100-year timescale. Concentrations of methane have increased by more than 150% since industrial activities and intensive agriculture began. After carbon dioxide, methane is responsible for about 23% of climate change in the twentieth century. Methane is produced under conditions where little to no oxygen is available. About 30% of methane emissions are produced by wetlands, including ponds, lakes and rivers. Another 20% is produced by agriculture, due to a combination of livestock, waste management and rice cultivation. Activities related to oil, gas, and coal extraction release an additional 30%. The remainder of methane emissions come from minor sources such as wildfire, biomass burning, permafrost, termites, dams, and the ocean. Scientists around the world are working to better understand the budget of methane with the ultimate goals of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving prediction of environmental change. For additional information, see the Global Methane Budget.

current options, will vary by location so they can impact that particular population:
- vaxx cows to destroy their internal biome for digesting grasses and producing methane (of course no analysis of impact to overall animal health OR to the quality of vitamins/minerals to be found in its meat).
OR
- or drug them to do the same
OR
- stick metal thing under skin and burn the methane.
Bill Gates: "Cows are about 5% of global emissions, which is pretty unbelievable. Wild. And if your goal is to get to zero, you don't get to skip the cows or the steel or the cement or any of those big areas. So there's a whole class of solutions of making meat without cows."… pic.twitter.com/TUx9FIyOtM

"Today, it doesn't taste as good and it costs too much. It's going through a little bit of a lull, but those companies, Impossible Beyond, Memphis and others, are pursuing that. In terms of the cows, we actually have, we pursued many solutions."
"So one is to vaccinate the cows in a way that their gut bacteria that emit the methane, which is also called natural gas for CH4, which is the second most important greenhouse gas, you can vaccinate them and that species of bacteria isn't there."
"Their stomachs are very special because they can eat grass. It's a three-stage fermentation process, basically. There's another way you can change what they eat and you could either put that in their water or their feed. There is a drug to change the microbiome, not a vaccine, but a drug."
"That looks very promising. And then there's a solution where you stick a sort of a metal thing into the skin of the cow, and it actually burns the methane. And all of these look to be quite cheap and implementable, even in Africa. And so this is one where I wasn't hopeful when I got started a decade ago. And now it's just a question of which solution. for which country ends up being the best."

If the issue is cows producing too much methane, changing the feed seems like the best course of action. Trials involving adding small amounts of a particular type of seaweed to their feed reduced methane in their farts by 98% but also caused some significant health issues and isn't a viable solution. Finding something like this which doesn't impact the cow's health would be ideal.

As Rogan pointed out, this is advice coming from a guy that looks like absolute dog***** It's not like he's ever had a physique. Bill has always looked worse than his age, telling humanity what to eat and how we'll survive.
Lololol. Not a chance
