Greening the Herds

This article from the NY Times talks about how changing a herd’s diet to a more plant-based diet drastically reduced the cows’ methane emissions.

I know this isn’t building related, but I love that reducing cow farts can have such a positive impact on our earth. :) Who knew that flaxseed and alfalfa could help save the planet?

The best part: Vermont seems to be the pioneer in this effort.
