If anything in your value stream uses fossil fuels, and you are competing with organizations which don’t have fossil fuels in their value streams, you are going to be losing business fast in the coming years.
Freshwater ecosystems account for half of global emissions of methane.
You can’t get much more alternative energy than tip mining. LGI estimates that there are hundreds of methane-producing tips across the country. (Note for American readers: a “tip” refers to a landfill in this case.) Many of these are in regional areas without systems to capture and destroy those emissions. … [continued]
Greenhouse gas concentrations, global sea level and ocean heat content reached record highs in 2022, according to the 33rd annual State of the Climate report (PDF here). The international annual review of the world’s climate, led by scientists from NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) and published by the Bulletin … [continued]
As the reality that humans have permanently and wantonly screwed up the environment begins to sink in, lots of cockamamie ideas are being floated around that are designed to save us from ourselves. Giant sunshades in space, aerosols in the stratosphere, beaming electricity down to Earth from satellites, direct carbon … [continued]
T&E embarked on the cruise ship MSC World Europa in June 2023 to film potential methane slip emanating from the ship’s funnels. We have put together a Q&A to answer some of the questions that have been raised following the publication by Bloomberg on July 31st, 2023, of the article … [continued]
Colorado will be the first US state to adopt a framework of rules to reduce methane emissions from oil and gas operations.
So many different places where a bad greenhouse gas can leak in natural gas systems. So little incentive for the industry to fix it.
Methane leakage as low as 0.2 percent puts gas’s climate impact on par with coal.
Municipal solid waste landfills are the third largest source of human-related methane emissions in the United States. Our municipal landfills emit an estimated 3.7 million metric tons of methane, or about 295 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MMT CO2 e) on a 20-year time horizon. This is roughly … [continued]
