Garlic and Cow Belching: A Global Warming Cure?

Who knew? Besides the vegan-eatin' PETA folks that is. Belching farm animals account for 16% of our planet's methane, a gas even more responsible for global warming than carbon dioxide.

As Popular Science reports in October, a new study has found that lacing the diets of cows with garlic can decrease their, uh, emissions, by up to 50%. Time to try this out on family and friends, too! The question is ... will the eventual meat be pre-infused with the fragrance and flavor of garlic?
