Wind of change<\/strong>\u00a0curbing cow burps to fight climate change<\/em><\/h3>\n

Milk comes from cows and cows eat grass everyone knows that. But along with milk, the average dairy cow also burps out over 600 litres of methane, every day. That\u2019s enough to fill more than 40 party balloons. And methane is a powerful greenhouse gas, which is making climate change worse.<\/p>\n

That’s why the University of Reading\u2019s Centre for Dairy Research gave our cows a different menu. We swapped out some of their grass for things like seaweed, garlic and herbs.<\/p>\n

What happened next? Can farmers tackle climate change? Will cow\u2019s milk be more planet friendly? And could a cow be trained to burp the National Anthem? Find out at our Spring Children\u2019s Lecture, with dairy science expert Professor Chris Reynolds.<\/p>\n

Admission free. Booking essential.<\/p>\n

Suitable for children 7 to 12 years.<\/p>\n
