The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine this week looked at the possibilities of removing methane emissions directly from the air. Removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere is ...
Decades of buried trash is releasing methane, a powerful greenhouse gas, at higher rates than previously estimated, the researchers said. By Hiroko Tabuchi They’re vast expanses that can be as big as ...
Methane is a potent greenhouse gas that can pack more than 25 times the global warming punch of carbon dioxide, and atmospheric methane emissions have been growing significantly since 2007. So it’s ...
