Do cows need a methane vaccine? Probably not. Do ranchers need a methane vaccine for cows? Maybe yes. Cows eat grass and the microbes in their stomachs turn a bunch of that biomatter into methane.

And if you follow the notions of the environmentalists, cows end up on their lists pretty often. The good news is several companies are working to solve the methane problem for ranchers. Get the full story from Fast Company.
