Giant composting machines would have emitted lots of methane,
as well as producing lots of heat.
Ever wonder how those cold-blooded dinosaurs kept warm enough ...during the long, high-latitude, winter season?

...and think about the nascent and evolving types of soils these critters contributed to ...and helped to form.

Pyrolysis creates reduced carbon! ...Time for the next step in our evolutionary symbiosis with fire.
