For both Bruins and Bears, there's a serious message for farmers in the Golden State: Get mooo-ving. Scholars from the two state law schools stress that there's a lot at stake for California's agricultural industry and a lot that it can do to respond to the threat of global warning by acting now to curtail contributing greenhouse gas emissions. Instead of battling environmentalists, for example, farmers could work with them to lobby legislators for government help in figuring how best to reduce climate change by such steps as smarter growing, more efficient transportation and use of chemicals and, yes, by dealing with the challenges created by methane-producing farm animals and their wastes.
