Last night, John Stewart had a guest on who claimed farm animals raised for meat are worse for global warming than the entire transportation industry. That's because their flatulence releases a lot of methane into the atmosphere, and methane is a far worse greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide. And that made me think this would make a great environmental ad opportunity for Gas-X, and it could go something like this:
We'd open on a pasture with a herd of cows all grazing, and then we'd hear them fart. Then the announcer would say that farm animal flatulence is worse for climate change than the entire transportation industry, and that's why Gas-X is teaming up with farmers and meat producers to give all farm animals Gas-X to prevent all their harmful gas emissions. Yes, with Gas-X, you can have your meat and eat it too, in an environmentally responsible way.
