Husband G to Son L (I take no part in this):
L: When I grow up I want to save the world and stop them chopping down trees
G: Why?
L: Because we need trees to breathe and they keep chopping the rainforests down and global warming and they said so at school
G: Global warming is about greenhouse gases
L: Durr! Yes I know
G: Best thing you can do is attack the American Burger industry then
L: Eh?
G: Well the problem isnt the trees they chop down, its the cows they put in their place
L: What?
G: Chop down trees, make space for cows, eat cows in burgers.
L: I get it - so if we didnt eat so many burgers we wouldnt cut so many trees down?
G: Not just that. If we didnt eat so many burgers there wouldnt be thousands and thousands of extra cows on the planet, all farting methane.....

What a facinating conversation, sometimes it makes me feel glad to be a bloke only we can have those conversations. Now if we could just find a way to stick a pipe up the cows backsides catch all the gas and use that for fuel....... or if its true about vegetarians.... not gonna go there lol
I missed this one when you posted it. Brilliant. To the point and succinct learning in a nutshell. Great lateral thinking about the methane!
