Read the scenario.Katie has been assigned to research about greenhouse gases. She chose to investigate methane gas. She knew that methane gas was produced naturally through the digestion of grass from grazing animals, like cows. She was surprised to find out that methane gas is also produced from landfills. This would add more methane gas into the atmosphere.

What happens if you just feed cows corn?
Option
What could happen if you get rid of all the cows?
Option
How much methane gas is added to the atmosphere from landfills?
Option
Is the methane produced in landfills the same as produced by cows?
Option
