Norway's belching Moose cause more pollution than cars.

http://www.spiegel.de/international/zeitgeist/0,1518,501145,00.html

The poor old Scandinavian moose is now being blamed for climate change, with researchers in Norway claiming that a grown moose can produce 2,100 kilos of carbon dioxide a year -- equivalent to the CO2 output resulting from a 13,000 kilometer car journey.

An estimated 35,000 moose are expected to be killed during the hunting season.

So, if I bag a moose, do I get one of those emission credits? Maybe I could sell it on ebay.

Moose would prefer a lichen encrusted tundra to span the earth... We'd watch out for those hulking beasts if we knew what was good for us.
