Fart tax on cattle



Estonian authorities have slapped a flatulence tax on farmers to
compensate the country for the methane gas produced by cows.

Farmers this week received their first 'fart tax' demands asking them to
pay for the greenhouse gases their cattle produce.

A single cow is thought to produce on average 350 litres of methane and
1,500 litres of carbon dioxide per day from flatulence and burping.

It is thought that cattle are responsible for up to 25 per cent of methane
gas emissions in Estonia.

Opposition politicians have slammed the tax however. Jaanus Marrandi,
spokesman for the opposition People's Union of Estonia said: "This is
unprecedented in any EU country."
