OMG!
Burping Worms May Contribute to Climate Change...
Aquatic animals that feed on lake and stream bottom sediments burp out small amounts of nitrous oxide, a potent greenhouse gas, a new study finds.
Studies of soil-dwelling earthworms had showed that the creepy crawlies emitted nitrous oxide because of the nitrogen-converting microbes they gobbled up into their guts with every mouthful of soil.
sigh.

Life creates greenhouse gases.
So, obviously, all life on earth must be destroyed.
