This article actually claims that livestock (specifically cows) produce more methane than anything else on the planet.
Apparently, "Climate Science" scaremongering got dropped on its head repeatedly as an infant.
==========================
"Scientists have managed to measure the belching and flatulence of cattle from space. This is considered important since the International Agency of Energy and the US Department of Agriculture estimate that methane from cows' burps and farts has a great influence on climate change and global warming.
Cows themselves have done nothing wrong in simply passing gas, but as human activity remains the leading driver of greenhouse gas emissions, researchers are investigating how the agriculture industry could be contributing to climate change.
... Agriculture is a major influence on climate change, and it is one of the largest source of methane emissions, according to the International Energy Agency.
The agriculture industry contributes roughly 10.5% of all greenhouse gasses in the U.S. points out the US Department of Agriculture.
The US cattle herd numbers 91.9 million cows and calves.
But despite the industry's immense size and greenhouse gas emissions, this is the first measurement of its kind made from space with satellites.
● ... There are a number of methane producers, including coal, gas, and oil, but livestock is the biggest, of all methane emissions.
Methane traps more heat than CO2 but has a shorter atmospheric lifespan.
Still, its ability to trap heat makes it a target in the fight against climate change."
