Don't Norwegians teach this in third grade like everybody else in the world?

Researchers claim that moose are potentially a leading cause of climate change and that the species should be balanced, suggesting they are "one of the biggest potential single sources of carbon emissions from wooded parts of Norway."
The Norwegian University of Science and Technology studied moose in Norwegian forests for several years and concluded that the species have a major effect on vegetation growth and are altering the carbon cycle by dining on tree buds. "Moose are an ecosystem engineer in the forest ecosystem, and strongly impact everything from the species composition and nutrient availability in the forest. A grown animal can eat 50 kilograms of biomass each day during summer," Gunnar Austrheim, an ecologist at the NTNU University Museum, said in a press release.
Moose tend to eat birch and young samplings in clearcut forests, an act researchers claim is where the ungulates "gobble up" possible carbon storage in trees.

No moose is good news for these crazed climate hysterics. When are termites going to be under their lash for CO2 emissions? The mass of termites on earth is larger than the weight of all humans.
“If you put every termite on earth on a scale at once, their total combined weight would be 445 million tons. For reference, if you did the same thing with humans, we would weigh 350 million tons.”
Wind turbines, real great idea. They take up hundreds of acres, cost a fortune, produce enough electricity to power a flashlight, and litter the ground with dead birds.
Whatever did the animals do for a million years before the pointy headed professors and nattering nabobs showed up?
I suggest the most straightforward solution is to bulldoze the Norwegian University of Science and Technology. Bulldoze it and replant it with moose food.
We should all do our collective part to solve this crisis. Eat more moose. Yum.
Morons everywhere. Our world has gone insane on just about every level
We don’t have an moose in our neck of the woods. I reckon we won’t catch the global warming.
I’ve also hear moose farts can be heard around the world and are so powerful they must also contribute to climate change.
Climate change BS just like the fraud Al Gore.
Yay Cap’n Kangaroo!
It's not that good, frankly. It's far easier to make venison palatable.
Møøse bytes can be nasti…
Of course, there's not a lot else out there...
They are Oslø the #1 cause of moose bytes.
Not from the Bee?????
These climate whores are out of their minds.
I, for one, happily invite these pencilnecked virgin incels to freely walk up to a full grown moose and start wagging their fingers at it.
Bonus points if they do it in an aggressive manner.
Then there’s the Minnesota Moose man
Next Americans will be told moose are biting the environment …..
Xactly.
Where did all that carbon come from in the first place?
This takes us right back to dinosaur flatulence and fecal matters.
Simple fecal facts are this has been going on since the beginning of time
Same with sunspot activity.
Marxism is a new phenomenon which needs to be discounted
