Why in the hell should a methane digester cost $1.5MM? They come in all sizes from 55 gallon and up, and are dirt simple devices. Any self-respecting farmer can probably build his own. There are designs all over the I’net.

But are they government approved, registered and tax stamped methane digesters, with quarterly inspections? Hmmmm?

[Bernard Marx]

California (or its big lefty cities) under a hypnotic spell of thinking it can have both good and evil at the same time under some kind of symbiosis.

Agree that the CA big city folk think that way but Brown and our radical Left legislature are active agents of Agenda 21. This is just one more incremental step toward their Utopian dream of eliminating animal products including meat from our menus. What better way to do that than using the government's regulative fist to increase production and consumer costs unrealistically?

How did the US ever survive the 60 million plus bison that used to roam unregulated from coast to coast before the 1800’s?

Globull warming started millenia ago!

I guess when the expression “California dreaming” arose, it wasn’t just a figure of speech, or about what would commonly be called the “American dream.”

Dear Lord help America. Trump may have come not a moment too soon. Swamps will get drained, even if swamp animals complain.

[HiTech RedNeck]

How many people venerating “science” like that have even bothered to carry out any real experiment.

Dances with wolves had it all wrong;
we can all thank the 19th century white European man for saving us from global warming.

[marktwain]

Some have, some have not.

The power of confirmation bias is impressive.

To get all the certifications, approvals, signed off version

White European men saved us from:

Global warming

Infections diseases.

Starvation

Exposure due to inadequate heating

Illiteracy

Human Sacrifice

Canaballism

Slavery

Grinding dawn to dusk poverty.

Moonbeam had better look at who owns most of the ag/cattle/dairy land in *his* state.

(But I'm certain he's well aware of them, so I'd chalk this up to his usual [trademark] pander-bluster and not expect any extreme changes.

JMHO

All these generations later and some of us are still tougher than a boot.
God bless America!
MAGA!

"To get all the certifications, approvals, signed off version"

Every state I have ever heard of has processes by which a self-built/self-installed system can meet such certifications. Methane digesters are SIMPLE technology...not rocket science. Any certification should be relatively simple, even in California.

Still not buying the $1.5MM number.
