Take away our beef and force us to replace it with faux meat made of soy (like Worthington Salisbury Stakes)...or worse...BEANS. If the ozone can't hold up under a load of cow farts, how will it handle millions more vegetarians on a daily diet of beans? I've been around enough vegetarians (my in-laws are all Seventh Day Adventist, remember?) to know how flatulent vegetarians are.

Lol....
I've actually had black bean burgers that weren't too bad.
Probably full of other stuff that's not good for you to make them taste better I'm sure.
Wouldn't want to replace a decent burger with the stuff though.
Methane is a very powerful greenhouse gas, much more than CO2. Primary source is livestock.
Not really, humans fart too, an average of 14 times per day.
There are six major sources of atmospheric methane: emission from anaerobic decomposition in (1) natural wetlands; (2) paddy rice fields; (3) emission from livestock production systems (including intrinsic fermentation and animal waste); (4) biomass burning (including forest fires, charcoal combustion, and firewood burning); (5) anaerobic decomposition of organic waste in landfills; and (6) fossil methane emission during the exploration and transport of fossil fuels.
Not thinking of replacing the propane furnace so much as supplementing it.
Using the pellet stove while we're home in just the coldest days here in Virginia and having it piped into the existing ductwork.
Most people buy a coal stove with the intention of supplementing but find it's taking most of the heat load. There is plenty of options for tying into existing duct work, depends on the model but many have an outlet for the duct and their own heat distribution motor.
The coal is likely less costly than the propane, if you find some local prices for the different fuels you can plug them in here to compare.
Moisture could be an issue I'd have to address though.
Pellets are bagged so generally not problem, my point is it's no concern at all with the coal especially for loose bulk purchases which can be cheaper than bagged coal.
It was a time when Democrats had some common sense. Those days are long gone!
Yup, and every Republican back then said, “ I’ve heated my house with buffalo chips since I was a little sprout.” “Ain’t no New Deal Democrat gonna change my mind now!”
