ELLINGTON, NEW ZEALAND -- Over thousands of years of evolution, sheep, cattle and other cud chewers developed a nasty habit. They burp and break wind a lot.

That gives New Zealand a distressing gas problem.

The country's 4 million people share two islands in the South Pacific with 40 million sheep, 9 million beef and dairy cattle and more than a million farmed deer, all producing the methane that many climate scientists say is one of the worst culprits behind global warming.

Planet Earth is on a roll!
GPP is way up. NPP is way up. To the surprise of those who have been bearish on the planet, the data shows global production has been steadily climbing to record levels, ones not seen since these measurements began.

GPP is Gross Primary Production, a measure of the daily output of the global biosphere -- the amount of new plant matter on land. NPP is Net Primary Production, an annual tally of the globe's production. Biomass is booming. The planet is the greenest it's been in decades, perhaps in centuries.

Campaigners have joined forces to wipe out potentially harmful landfill sites.

Zero Landfill has been set up by actions groups in Thakeham and Washington, near Storrington, and Small Dole, near Steyning.

The campaigners hope to end the practice of burying rotting rubbish underground.

They say landfill is harmful to the environment because the break-down of waste produces greenhouse gases. Landfill sites could also damage the health of people living close by them by polluting local water supplies.
