Your edit states correctly that methane is a much more potent greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide. However, this is already accounted for in the Carbon dioxide equivalent value for methane. So in effect you are trying to multiply by methane's global warming potential twice. Cattle are a significant source of methane emissions, but in the US their contribution to global warming is relatively small compared to the vastly larger emissions from burning fossil fuels. I'll look at cleaning up the article later. See also Atmospheric methane. -- Teratornis ( talk) 09:24, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
Actually Ooze2b, that article on aspect isn't the slightest bit accurate or correct and that's why it's "as clear as mud". The crew that's been writing and rewriting all the articles on aspect and tense and such fail to actually understand what aspect even is, and since they don't understand the concept, their articles (and edits) are just clusterfucks of misplaced terminology, out of context examples, and 'rules' that don't work even in half the examples they've used with them. Hit me up if you want a non-muddy explanation on aspect Drew.ward ( talk) 16:34, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
