Methane coverts to CO2 after a decade, that CO2 turns into grass. Cows then eat the grass, and the CO2 is burped out as methane. The cycle is complete. The soil the grass lives in also absorbs and holds onto CO2 from the atmosphere.

@ggr2022 Yes, a fantastic achievement but let’s not leave out the Brit, Simon C, who came home first, after an auto-steering problem that made him divert way off course to fix it ashore, to then have to wait a week to re-enter the route home ‘cos of adverse winds, then overtake them all.
@ggr2022 Let’s not forget to mention she even rescued a fellow competitor along the way. Congratulations Kirsten, you did an incredible job!

@travelred @katherineschof8 @JolyonMaugham The irony is that if it was re-structured and the headline rate of 40% dropped, it would probably raise more tax revenues. But in the world of envy the virtuous don't want to hear that. Capital gain tax on death would be a much more sensible option
@alexmassie 2 years ago, I commented (on one of your Tweets) on their awful service. It was pounced upon (genuinely borderline personal & abusive) by several SNP supporters who viewed it as a partisan slur, arguing I was making it up as they'd "never had an issue". Now THAT'S partisanship!
