So apparently around 13,000 thousand years ago when the 'megafauna' of America such as the wooly mammoth and giant camel died the resulting abscence of the methane gas produced by them farting....
*ahem* produced by them belching all the time led to a period of noticable global cooling."People just automatically assume that it's farts," lamented study leader Felisa Smith of the University of New Mexico. "Eighty to 90 percent of methane ... is in the form of a burp."
