The emerging cow fart crisis, and banning beans as human food to save the planet

Since the Green Deal seeks to eliminate cattle farts (hey, what about wild Bison?) by banning beef, I'd suggest banning beans due to human methane emission. Or, is it too extreme to suggest simply banning human existence entirely?

Some of their arguments were along the lines that cattle were ok as long as they were grass fed. Grain fed was a no no. Earth killing

Of course burning corn is ok for your gas tank.
Just not ruminants that are capable of digesting it.
( and reaching slaughter weight sooner than grass fed making an abundant, cheaper protein source. Can't have THAT)

It's not banning beans that's the goal. It's banning humans and other methane-emitting lifeforms.

Just banning beans and cows won't do the trick. You would also have to ban broccoli, cabbage, any kind of greens, all fruits, alcoholic beverages, in fact, just about everything you would put in your mouth. People who advocate this kind of thing are simple-minded dolts who get a thought and think they've discovered something important.

I could be wrong about this but I believe that the food a cow eats if not eaten and simply left to rot in the field will still produce the same chemicals. Perhaps slightly different but that is what happens to all vegetation. When an animal eats it that simply provides a place that it is captured and escapes noticeably from time to time. Except for my wife of course, She insists that she does not fart.

Buddy Hackett used to say that women don't fart, but they often stand next to dogs that do.
