Atmospheric scientists show proposed 'geoengineering' effort to remove methane, a potent greenhouse gas, from the atmosphere could worse air quality while providing minimal climate benefits.
Shallow coastal waters are hotspots for methane emissions, releasing significant amounts of this potent greenhouse gas into the atmosphere and contributing to global warming. This new research highlights how tides,
Steve Milloy, a former Trump administration EPA official, said that Congress needs to remake the law in order for the new methane emissions rule to be reversed.
Up to 485,000 tonnes of the greenhouse gas seeped from the Nord Stream pipeline network following a series of explosions in 2022.
The recent analysis by S&P Global Commodity Insights has revealed a significant milestone in the fight against climate change: a 26% reduction in methane emissions from oil and gas production
Utah atmospheric scientists reveal that a proposed "geoengineering" strategy to remove a potent greenhouse gas could worsen air quality while offering minimal benefits. As human activities release increasing amounts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere,
Methane is a greenhouse gas that traps heat in the atmosphere and is 80 times the potency of carbon dioxide. Audio recording is automated for accessibility. Humans wrote and edited the story.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, joined by a 22-state coalition, filed a lawsuit Thursday against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to block the implementation of a methane emissions tax created under the Inflation Reduction Act.
In December 2024, before the Natural Gas Tax Repeal Act was reintroduced, Sen. Britt had joined other Congressional Republicans in introducing a bicameral Congressional Review Act resolution of disapproval to block the EPA’s implementation of the methane tax.
Working in what Dr. Johnson calls a “very, very active research space” – with a suite of advanced diagnostics, analytic tools and experimental capabilities unparalleled in Canada – the EERL is playing a key role in helping Canada and the world seize the moment for tackling methane emissions.
Department of Energy (DOE) released updated versions of the 45VH2-GREET lifecycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions model
