TEXT: COW THREAT
:
Cows are walking machines. They transform raw materials (grass, hay, water and feed)
into finished products (milk, beef, leather and so on).As any factory, cows produce waste,
Solid waste is eliminated through the rear end of these "complex machines", and is used
as fertilizer. The fermentation process in their four stomachs produces gas. These walking
machines have two chimneys: one in the front end, the other in the rear end. Gaseous
emissions through the front end chimney are called burps. Cows burp a lot. Every minute
and a half. These burps release methane gas, Methane is dangerous to the planet
because it contributes to the greenhouse effect. The world population is growing very fast.
That means there are more people eating beef. Consequently, there is more cattle --more
walking machines -producing more methane gas.This is the problem, but very few people
want to
their
change
eating habits. What about
you?
Vocabulary: raw = cru / waste = desperdício / leather= couro / chimneys chaminés /
burps = arrotos/cattle = gado
