Our methane emissions from all the waste material we leave lying around the place is 15%+ as big a problem as the carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels.

“The AGGI is derived from highly accurate measurements of greenhouse gases in air samples collected around the world,” said Vanda Grubišić, Ph.D, director of NOAA’s Global Monitoring Laboratory (GML). “It continues to rise despite international efforts to curb emission of greenhouse gases from fossil fuels that seem to be falling short of their targets.”
Composting is a process that allows organic waste to decompose in the presence of oxygen, which minimizes methane production. It’s not a new practice, but how much do you really know about composting?
A study published by the University of Texas finds that regulating methane pollution from oil and gas sites in Texas could create as many as 35,000 jobs. Texas is the top methane polluting state in the country, and the state’s Permian Basin is one of the largest oil and gas … [continued]
E-fuels, renewable natural gas, carbon capture — fossil fuel companies will stop at nothing to protect their business model.
Methanol is like hydrogen. Job one is to decarbonize existing uses before inventing new ones. As a marine fuel, it’s not the best choice.
Satellite “completeness” is a new and powerful concept in the push to slash climate pollution.
Methane from cow poop is big business. Fossil fuel companies are ecstatic about the possibilities of the new “brown gold.”
The methane industry has created a new political action campaign that targets Democratic voters in blue states.
Methane is a more powerful greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide, but advocates are pushing legislation to declare it a green energy source.
