Over half of your poop is actually bacteria, did you know that?
Germ believed a warming foe
Germ believed a warming foe Scientists have discovered a bacterium in the
acidic peat bogs of western Siberia which reduces methane by 90 per
cent, reports the journal 'Science" today. The bacterium, called
"Beijerinckia", turns methane into energy before the gas escapes
into the atmosphere. It is hoped that this bacterium could
eventually work to fight against global warming by getting rid of
greenhouse gases before they reach the atmosphere. 9 OCTOBER 1998
