The rapid rate of climate change since the Industrial Revolution has resulted from changes in atmospheric chemistry, specifically increases in greenhouse gases due to increased combustion of fossil fuels, land - use change (e.g., deforestation), and fertilizer production (Forster et al. 2007).

People without adequate lactase activities experience incomplete lactose digestion which may result in excessive gas production, bloating, diarrhea, and abdominal cramping.

Instead, they travel to the colon where they are fermented by bacteria, resulting in gas production.

This can be caused by a number of things, from having a deficient amount of enzymes needed to break down specific carbohydrates, fats or proteins which lead to improper digestion and undigested food in the large intestines which results in gas production and bloating.

Theoretically adding digestive enzymes to your dog's food can help with the breakdown of carbohydrates, resulting in less gas production in the colon.

Also, coal gasification converts only a portion of the coal carbon to methane; to my knowledge, approximately 1/2 of the carbon ends up being emitted as CO2, which is not the result of energy production but rather a byproduct of making the gas that will be used to make the energy.
