A Tennessee farmer, Stephanie Nash, recently reacted to a decision by French dairy giant Danone to require cattle to wear diapers and masks in an effort to reduce methane emissions as an idea birthed “loony town,” Fox News reports.
The company made the announcement in mid-January 2023 stating it would reduce the methane emissions coming from flatulence and burps by 30%.
Nash responded by calling the move ‘udder madness’ in an interview with Tucker Carlson, stating she tried to put a mask on one of her cows and immediately noticed that it was struggling to breathe.
