Lynell, Thank you. The lecture was fascinating and the farmer/researcher an excellent presenter. The subject of methane was not addressed. He did bring up his belief that much CO2 could be eliminating by the dung conversion, which he is a part of. I don't expect to be a cow dung or belching source but have provided some links on the subject and do not know how fully each addressed the subject or how up to date they may be:

Morning, Fern. I found all three of these links very informative. Thanks for sharing. I trust there remain great minds who can help to navigate us through this climate debacle.

Morning, Lynell, Those minds have been with us for a long time, and earth would have been much less damaged if governments, Big Money and many more people had been listening. USA moved out of denial - but the negative forces haven't gone away.

Thank you, Fern. I will wait until my best time - early tomorrow morning - to dive into your links.
