By using this renewable resource, were breaking up greenhouse gas that would otherwise vent into the atmosphere, Wohlenhaus said. Methane gas is one of the potent greenhouse gases, with globalwarming effect more than times greater than carbon dioxides. It could be way for dairy farmers to save, or make, money on what is waste material that, if not properly managed, can pollute rivers, streams and groundwater. The amount of methane gas available is significant single cow produces about cubic feet of the stuff each day, Wohlenhaus said.
Put another way, the 244,000 dairy cows in the state produce enough methane gas to meet about percent of the vehicle fuel needs statewide, he said..
