“Kangaroo fart can ease global warming.” – Reading this news was a pleasant surprise for me on a sunny Saturday morning! The news went on, “Australian scientists are trying to give Kangaroo-style stomachs to cattle and sheep in a bid to cut greenhouse gas emission blamed for global warming”. This was good enough dose for my ears to transmit this alarming idea to my stomach back to my mind and finally to eyes, which were now shining.
“Thanks to special bacteria in their stomachs, kangaroo flatulence contains no methane and scientists want to transfer those bacteria to cattle and sheep”, ooh…. This was not the news I thought it to be. It’s related to some nonsense gas which these nerds produce herds. Still I went on for the sake of getting news to talk about in office. And this deliberate move of mine proved to be a great idea to get me my first patent because it was, “Sheep and cattle produce large amounts of the harmful gases, about fourteen percent of emissions from all sources in
