A few weeks ago I mentioned that farting livestock were more of a problem than cars when it comes to the supposed damage being wrought on the atmosphere that has led to global warming (or, as the temperature has not actually increased in the past decade, what is now known as "climate change").Today the junk scientist head of the hopeless International Panel on Climate Change, Rajendra Pachauri, tells us to eat less meat. This will no doubt delight eco-terrorists and vegans around the globe. The pale and pasty weeds from PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals - not the right-wing spoof group known as People Eating Tasting Animals) will doubtless continue their crusade to force us to become vegetarians.
Will they then ban humans from enjoying a curry? Or onions? Or foods that make us as humans fart? Clearly wind power isn't the answer.

It's a pity the ridiculousness of the way the lobbies operate has tarnished the debate so.
I'm worried about this Donal. It said in the Mail the other day that sales of baked beans have rocketed since the credit crunch, and we all know what that means.
It could have dire consequences for us all.
The next things he'll say is that we should start sterilizing women to stop humans breeding.
Where is the counter comment from doctors to point out the dangers of not eating meat and the serious consequences of malnutrition on the body?
Dr. Rajendra Pachauri wouldn't be a Hindu and therefore likely to be a vegetarian for religious reasons, by any chance?
Oh, yes, just spotted this on Wikipedia: "Pachauri began by drawing attention to his conviction that the Hindu philosophy of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam, which means the whole universe is one family, must dominate global efforts to protect the global commons.
