“Could Modified Cow Stomachs Be the Secret Weapon in the Fight Against Climate Change?”
Have you ever looked at a cow and thought, “Gee, if only you could cut down on your methane output”? Well, scientists at the University of California at Davis are doing more than just daydreaming—they’re actually reengineering the microbes in cows’ stomachs to do just that! This bold attempt aims to tackle a problem that contributes around 4% to our global warming woes.
Now, I don’t know about you, but that’s some serious bovine pressure! It’s like asking cows to quit their favorite dance party—munching grass in the pasture—because it’s making the planet hotter. What do you think? Are we really going to reengineer Mother Nature’s ruminating wonders, or is this just another wild idea on the list of “things we can’t believe we’re doing”?
Scientists at the University of California at Davis are attempting to reengineer the microbes in cows’ stomachs to produce less methane, which is a potent greenhouse gas released by the animals that contributes about 4% of global warming. What do you think?
“Well, it’s easier than getting cows to reduce how often they fly.”
Michelle Brogan, Notebook Perforator
“It’s about time we undid God’s shoddy work.”

“Sure, what’s one more indignity?”
Suraj Faruq, Chief Cobbler
