Eco-Friendly Australian Farts - Kangaroos Pass Green Gas

Because of the special blend of bacteria in their stomachs, kangaroo flatulence does not contain methane (a greenhouse gas) like cattle and sheep. Scary to believe, but the enteric methane from these animals accounts for 14% of Australia’s emissions, while in New Zealand, those rates re up to 50%.

So, scientists down underare trying to transplant kangaroo bacteria to cattle and sheep to get eco-friendly farts. Researchers say the bacteria also makes the digestive process much more efficient and could potentially save millions of dollars in feed costs for farmers. "Not only would they not produce the methane, they would actually get something like 10 to 15 percent more energy out of the feed they are eating," said Klieve.

Even farmers who laugh at the idea of environmentally friendly kangaroo farts say that's nothing to joke about, particularly given the devastating drought Australia is suffering. "In a tight year like a drought situation, 15 percent would be a considerable sum," said farmer Michael Mitton

Cryogentic Heiress? - Paris Wants to be Frozen

It’s official: Paris Hilton will be frigid - when she dies. She announced that she wants to be frozen to preserve her bod. Paparazzi are already signing up to be frozen right after her, and thawed just before her to capture it all. “That’s hot” has been replaced by “That’s cold.”

“It’s so cool,” Hilton said of cryogentics. “Almost all the cells in the body are still alive when death is pronounced. And if you’re immediately cooled, you can be perfectly preserved. My life could be extended by hundreds and thousands of years.”

Cryogentics, freezing of bodies for thawing later, takes a lot of energy. Freezing Paris, Texas might make more sense.

Recycled Chopstick Bra - " My Hashi Bra"

A new bra inspired by Japanese cuisine features recycled chopsticks, one cup resembling a rice bowl, and the other looks like a serving of miso soup. Chopsticks in Japan are disposable which is causing the loss of huge swaths of forest; reusable chopsticks are encouraged. Lingerie maker Triumph International has integrated reusable chopsticks into a funky bra. “My Hashi Bra” (my chopstick bra) has collapsible chopsticks conveniently stashed. As for comfort? Well sometimes funky isn’t comfortable.

“The concept bra, which comes with a pair of collapsible chopsticks, has a Japanese dining table theme—the right cup consists of a rice bowl, the left cup a miso soup bowl, and a removable chopstick-rest lies between the cups,” Reuters explained.

"Holsters, made of cloth and placed on the sides of the cups, hold the chopsticks while pushing the breasts to create cleavage.

Being eco-friendly is now fashionable in Japan, where people are increasingly carrying around reusable bags and chopsticks.”
In August we reported Japan wanted to start a recycling program for its 90,000 tonnes of chopsticks. It’ll be interesting!
