It was only a matter of time before someone pinned the blame on flatulating camels; and Australia wants to do something about it:

The world’s association of camel scientists fought back angrily on Monday over Australian plans to kill wild dromedaries on the grounds that their flatulence adds to global warming.

The idea is “false and stupid… a scientific aberration”, the International Society of Camelid Research and Development (ISOCARD) charged, saying camels were being made culprits for a man-made problem.

“We believe that the good-hearted people and innovating nation of Australia can come up with better and smarter solutions than eradicating camels in inhumane ways,” it said.

The smarter solution is obvious: harness the inflammable gaseous emissions in camel wind farms. You could include a few Anglican bishops, too.
