Researchers are exploring a new way to feed dairy cows that could help cut down on methane emissions while improving ...

Belching – not flatulence – is the major cause of methane produced by the world’s cows and a Seattle-based company has just won $1.5 million to test a product to make cows burp less. Both ...

Adding a type of methane-inhibiting red algae directly to cow feces cut down methane emission from the poop by about 44 percent, researchers report. Skip to content. Subscribe or renew today ...

Let’s find out how. The problem with cows. As tasty as beef is, it comes at a large environmental cost. The main issue is that cows, being ruminants, produce large amounts of methane to exist.

Sealing manure ponds at a Central Valley farm led to a significant reduction in emissions. A large, balloon-like tarp covers ...

Cow burps are a major source of methane, a potent greenhouse gas that heats up the planet more than 80 times faster than CO2 when it’s first released. But a new enzyme—from a startup that ...

The methane burps are vacuumed up to a container on the cow’s back. But the container needs to be emptied daily, which means the farmer needs to hire lots of workers.

Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas, and cows are a major source of it. A group of scientists is developing a proof of concept for a vaccine that would curb methane emissions in cattle.

Cow manure is made up of roughly 65 percent methane. In the air around us all the time, methane is a little less than two parts per million . “In a typical dairy barn, it’s about 100 to 200 parts per ...

Whether they're for dairy or beef, cows produce a lot of methane gas. A single cow produces up to 264 pounds of methane per day, contributing to a total of 231 billion pounds of methane emitted ...

Methane emitted in cow burps comes from gas-producing microbes in the gut. Engineering these microbes to produce less methane would help limit emissions before they are burped out. “We’re trying to ...

Nugget the cow: Seaweed-munching bovine chews on solution to methane problem Each year, Nugget and her numerous cow pals generate about the same climate impact as nearly 240,000 gas-powered ...
