Greenhouse gases - from our Asses!!
Farts make us feel better but make the earth warmer! Farts contribute to global warming. Honest. There is even a book on this! Read on to find out more!

Wondering how the Wild Spirit is farting a different tune than wildlife awareness today? Well - long story short - I was told that the Wilderbeest farts loudly while being chased by a predator - ostensibly, to confuse the predator. Being very partial to farts and brain-farts, I had to go research farts. This is what I discovered!
βA typical human fart, as per this source is composed of about 59 percent nitrogen, 21 percent hydrogen, 9 percent carbon dioxide, 7 percent methane and 4 percent oxygen.

βWe all know that the increase of greenhouse gases in atmosphere causes global warming - right? That is because greenhouse gases retain more heat in atmosphere instead of reflecting it. See the image below from National Geographic on global warming - taken from this source.

So what do you see as common in farts and green house gases - Carbon dioxide and Methane!! Therefore, we DO produce greenhouse gases from our asses.

So funny @vm2904 :) Reminds me of the time I went to the pharmacy as an elderly aunt had a problem with farting, so asked the assistant if they could recommend something for flatulence. She did not know what I was talking about, and asked me to repeat it but still looked puzzled but I certainly was not going to say the word farting in the pharmacy :) By this time my dear old aunt out of frustration piped up, her face quite a picture, and said 'it's for when you poep', the Afrikaans word for farting :) Well, all the pharmacy assistants disappeared to the back of the store, probably killing themselves with laughter! We got the tablets, quite pricey too, so I told her she'd better keep them for special occasions :) We had a good giggle about this...wonder if farts produce happy hormones too ;) Just kidding :) Thanks for the refreshing post!
Lol. Must have been quite an incident. Thanks for sharing. Made me smile
Thinking... If the waters rises because of global warming, are we going to make bubbles when we fart???
LOL!! I sure hope we do not get to find out!
I recently read an article about this, it was like car contamination but in a smaller scale.
Yes - Whether it is car exhausts or human exhausts, both have potential to cause global warming. LOL
Incredible
funny lifeπ

Cows fart out more CO2 than all the cars that we drive
True story
If we admit the premice that increased CO2 will indefently cause temperature increase why don't we focus less on stopping things that cough out CO2 and instead just plant some trees, they breath in CO2 and breath out O2, the opposite of us.
Ha ha ha. Indeed a funny post. Cant stop laughing my friend. I would then sincerly advise you not to make the earth warmer. Please have little pity on us. The temperatures in Muscat are close to 50 degrees and cant take any more warmth :) upvoted and following u as always.
