Being the world’s largest beef producer with 55 million cows, Argentinian scientists tested claims about bovines being one of the worst polluters on the planet thanks to the methane they produce. To do this, they used big pink tanks on top of the cows, connected to their intestines with a tube inserted into their rear end (what scientist technically refer to as “That Cow’s Ass”).
Looking to make receiving bad news a little more bearable? Just make sure that you only receive bad news via the Fart’n Phone, the “world’s first farting phone.” Learning that your wife has been cheating on you won’t be so bad when you’re still laughing because — get this — this phone farts instead of rings! Hot dog, that’s hilarious! I don’t even care about that diagnosis anymore. Farts! [Product Page via Nerd Approved]
This is the “Who Did It?” clock. Every hour that there’s light, on the hour, it farts. When the lights are out it’ll refrain from waking you up with flatulence, leaving that to you and/or your bedmate.

Sure, Hummers are bad for the environment, but do you know what else is? Cow farts. Yep, the methane in cow farts contributes to a surprisingly-high 5% of all global warming gasses out there, with methane being 22 times more potent at capturing atmospheric heat than carbon dioxide. The good news? A couple of Japanese scientists seem to have stumbled upon a way to neutralise this problem.
