The Moose is Loose
Ooops. Excuse me …
There’s disturbing news today as Spiegel Online features an article stating, “The Scandinavian moose is now being blamed for climate change, with researchers in Norway claiming that a grown moose can produce 2,100 kilos of methane a year — equivalent to the CO2 output resulting from a 13,000 kilometer car journey.”
I was shocked when I heard this. This means the whole time I’ve been keeping up my Swedish Bikini Team fan site I should have been converting their measurements from the metric system.

“… I’m a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride ….”
.
The article goes on to say, “Norway is concerned that its national animal, the moose, is harming the climate … through its belching and farting.”
Wait, … what? The moose is the national animal of Norway?! No wonder Norway hasn’t conquered anything since the Viking days. You can’t strike fear into the hearts of other countries if your national symbol is one half of Rocky and Bullwinkle.
All of this is, of course, bad news for the moose … but good news for wannabe green millionaires.
If my math is correct, you can take a private jet to Norway for a hunting trip and, if you kill more than three moose, you’ll have enough carbon credits to open up your own oil refinery.

If the moose existed for years before “climate change” was detected then it probably isn’t to blame: very simple logic, why don’t they use it?

If I farted out 2100 kg of methane per year, the environmentalists wouldn’t be the only ones who would be concerned,
