I keep getting ads saying things like "landfills produce more methane pollutants than 56000 cars" or "tell Congress to fix this one methane leak." I also hear people bring up farming cows as a counter-arguement for any climate action (but not as a "let's fix this" type arguement sadly). So my thinking is why aren't people trying to harvest methane and use it for something? Is it inefficient? Are they stupid?

It's too bad we can't get animals (including ourselves) to hold it all day then dispense it into a fuel tank for home use.

    What if we kept them underground. We could build a city above it. It would be a hub for trade, exchanging methane for other goods. We could call it Bartertown.
