A build up of methane gas from a herd of flatulent cows has caused an explosion on a farm. The blast, caused by a concentration of gas emitted by a group of 90 cows, damaged the roof of their cow shed — leaving one of the animals injured. High levels of the gas had built up in the structure in the central German town of Rasdorf. Then "a static electric charge caused the gas to explode with flashes of flames," police said in a statement. One cow was treated for burns. Methane emitted by cows worldwide is believed to contribute to global warming. |
