There is a carbon cycle just like the water cycle. Cows don’t create carbon dioxide, they just re-inject it back into the atmosphere from whence it came.\u00a0 Plants take carbon dioxide from the atmosphere in order to make the sugars and starches that sustain their life.\u00a0 Animal herbivores depend upon the energy rich plant material to sustain their lives and carnivores eat them.\u00a0 Essentially, all animals, no matter their size, from microbe to brontosaurus, depend upon plants for life.\u00a0 And plants upon the carbon dioxide in the air.\u00a0\u00a0 Plants are either eaten, die and decompose from bacterial action or burn.\u00a0 In all these processes the carbon compounds in their bodies are re-oxidized to CO2.\u00a0 Likewise, when animals die, they too return to the atmosphere.<\/p>\n
The suggestion that animals are partially responsible for “man caused global warming” is too ignorant to label as ludicrous.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
