NOT PARODY: ‘Beneficial Bloodsucking’: Bioethicists Want Ticks to Infect People to Stop Them from Eating Meat – ‘We argue that if eating meat is morally impermissible, then efforts to prevent the spread of tickborne [allergy] are also morally impermissible’ – Published in the Journal Bioethics
This is not a parody. Two bioethicists have argued in the prestigious professional journal Bioethics that we should breed ticks to cause more infections of a condition that causes an allergy to red meat.

CNN: How a ‘cow fart’ vaccine could help tackle climate change – Funded ‘by $9.4 million from the Bezos Earth Fund’
https://www.cnn.com/climate/cows-methane-vaccine-pirbright-spc/index.html The cow’s amazing ability to sustain itself by eating nothing but grass is one of the marvels of nature, but it comes at a cost. As grass ferments in the rumen — one of four compartments in the animal’s stomach — it naturally produces methane, a greenhouse gas 28 times more potent than CO2, […]

NYC restaurants flip out over new ‘char broil’ rule that would force them to cut emissions by 75%: ‘Stop messing with my burgers’
https://nypost.com/2025/01/12/us-news/nyc-restaurants-flip-out-over-new-char-broil-rule-that-would-force-them-to-cut-emissions-by-75/ By Carl Campanile Big Apple eateries say a new “char broil” rule is totally half-baked. The city’s environmental cops could force restaurants that use charbroilers to cut their smoky emissions by 75% — or figure out a new way to cook meat and fish.
