UK millions for cow fart study

 
The UK is doing it tough borrowing 2 billion pounds every week to survive and taxpayers will be happy to know that the borrowed money is being spent wisely. Millions of the borrowed money are being spent to reduce cow flatulence in Colombia instead of wasting it on UK schools, hospitals and roads.
Pensioners will get a warm feeling to know of the government largess going to to Turkey to build windmills which the Turks are not silly enough to fund themselves.

Millions of pounds of British taxpayers’ money has been spent on a scheme aimed at reducing the flatulence of Colombian cattle, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.

A £15million grant to ranchers and other organisations in the South American country was part of a £2.9billion package of ‘climate aid’ to developing countries which critics called ‘ludicrous’.

The initiative aimed to improve animal diets by cultivating trees and plants on their grazing lands – in doing so reducing the amount of methane escaping through belching and flatulence.
