| I mentioned this at the race barn last week and they all looked at me like I was crazy ... lol
It is to eliminate the dairy industry in California ... just like the save the little minnow cut off the water to California carrots, radishes and avocados ...
USA needs two walls ... Mexico border and the California border .. lol
Next will be laws and arrests on dairymen for groping their cows to milk them .
lol

Location: Bastrop, Texas | Those poor farmers. That's all I can say. How will they measure the farts? How do they plan to document their desired reduction in cow farts? Will they require all dairy farmers to shove kazoos up their cow's asses? Then that will create another government job. "Bovine Fart Monitor" - hired to count kazoo's per cow. Of course the universties will now be offering 4 year degrees and post grad degrees inn"Flatology". |

It'll create jobs.... you can put a person per pasture with a tally-sheet.
Or is it per cow?? Or.... holy cow what a mess... 
Sorry, I just can't keep serious hearing stuff like this.... they must be smoking some good $hit there in Ca....

Location: Bastrop, Texas | It just goes to show how many stupid people live amongst us. The inmates are running the asylum. We haven't seen any "global warming" in 20 years, but they want to squeeze money out of California dairy farmers, with their goal being to reduce methane in farts by 40% over 10 years. We are talking about roughly 1 million cows here, out of a couple billion across the globe.....less than 0.1%. That doesn't include all the other living creatures who fart. Every living thing poops, screws, pees, and farts.
Leave it to Governor Moonbeam to get this law passed. Like everything else insane, it starts in California. Meanwhile, Californians are fleeing the state in droves. We are seeing infestations of liberal environmental whackos all over Texas. They congregate, breed, and multiply like bacteria in an abscess. |

We are in ND and got a letter from the USEPA a few years back that outlined something like a tax of $2.75 per head per year for a methane "emissions" tax on cows. I wish I would have saved it, but we haven't seen anything since... It was rather scary with a cow/calf operation! |

I know these bastards like I know every square inch of my beautiful majestic fat body. This is just the beginning. This is how it starts.
Remember this word: "INCREMENTALISM"
That's how they operate. They start out small, and they incrementally add on. Everything they do starts this way, and California is their laboratory; their hatchery for their diabolical schemes. As goes California, so goes the country.....eventually. |

Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR | Remember the political thread a week or 2 ago when I mentioned the state of California is trying to drive out the ag industry? This is one of several bad laws from 2016 alone. And like you said, things tend to start there and spread. We already have politicians saying we don't need US ag, just let 3rd world countries produce our food since they can do it cheaper. |

| I don't think this is all about "farts". It's a "manure management" bill. They want farmers to put in machinery that will use the methane gas from the manure and convert it into energy. This could potentially be beneficial for the farmers by reducing their energy costs for milk cooling, electricity, pumps, etc, because they would be using the machinery that converts the manure(which they have tons of manure) into energy.
From the article you attached, they are getting aid for these machines, but I'm sure their will be some lengthy qualification process.
I see a red flag with the bill in the statement:
"The bill would authorize local jurisdictions to charge and collect fees to recover the local jurisdiction’s costs incurred in complying with the regulations."
I don't I agree with this bill. It's creating more regulations, more fines and fees, and will run small family run dairy's out of business.
Does anyone know what the fees would be?

still an insane law. I can't imagine it becoming cost effective. As long as China and India and other countries do nothing for cleaner air, it is pointless. |

No kidding......California just passed a law taxing cow farts.
