Depending on how the cattle is raised, it becomes easier to handle the manure and process it with biodigesters to recover most of that methane and use it as a fuel. The same goes for poultry and pork residues.

Of course, all the cow feces in the world isn't probably as bad as one day of car exhaust from a city like New York or Los Angeles. It's all relative.
Methane has a longer half-life than COČ, though I don't remember how it compares to NOČ.
