Oktoberfest produces a whole lot of methane

[Still Waters]

Ah, Oktoberfest. The annual festival draws some six million revelers to Munich, where the music is thumping, the sausage is sizzling and the beer (so, so much beer) is flowing. But all of these good times might not be so great for the environment. As Kai Kupferschmidt reports for Science, a new study has found that Oktoberfest releases considerable amounts of methane gas into the atmosphere.

The ones held in New Jersey release a considerable amount of jackassery and schmuckness.

What’s wrong with producing a bit of methane?

Avoid the tents if concerned. Methane is lighter than air, and will rise and disperse if in the open. Lol.

Tents trap methane unless well ventilated.
