Shallow coastal waters are hotspots for methane emissions, releasing significant amounts of this potent greenhouse gas into the atmosphere and contributing to global warming. New research highlights how tides,
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.
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,
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.
Natural gas trucks’ greenhouse gas benefits are marginal when accounting for methane leakage—and could lock out better zero-emission alternatives.
