THINGS YOU WANT TO KNOW *

HERE IS TODAY'S TIP FROM ECOS, SEQUOIA'S ENVIRONMENTAL CLUB:
Eat less meat.  Methane is the second most significant greenhouse gas and cows are one of the greatest methane emitters. Their grassy diet and multiple stomachs cause them to produce methane, which they exhale with every breath.     J. Slater
