Two energy scholars who have studied the extent of methane leaks in the oil and gas industry explain what rescinding methane emissions regulations will mean to the climate and industry.
The majority of fugitive methane emissions come from a minority of locations and activities – so-called super-emitters.
New technologies can help locate large methane leaks in a faster and more effective manner.
Fake meat may be the food of the future.
Gas mining is expanding across Australia, and has been touted as part of the answer to cutting emissions. But there is evidence that this rollout will pose significant health and environmental risks.
Food systems must be transformed to produce more nutritious food with a lower environmental footprint.
New Zealand could become the first country to put a price on greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture.
The European Investment Bank’s funding of the Trans Adriatic Pipeline will harm the climate and makes little financial sense.
Analysis of 12,000-year-old Antarctic ice reveals that methane leaks from fossil fuel extraction play a larger role than previously thought.
Landfills produce huge amounts of methane. Many of the bigger operators capture it to turn into energy, but they’re wasting about 80% of what’s available. It’s time Australia stepped up.
Set aside the politics. If by some miracle we turned off carbon emissions immediately, how would the climate respond?
Infrared cameras are the technology of choice for detecting gas leaks across the US. New research shows that these cameras can be quite inaccurate, and leaks can persist without being detected.
Meat uses a lot of resources - between three and ten times as much as plants for the same amount of protein. The rich world might be slowly losing its taste for meat, but the developing world isn’t.
Going vegetarian might help reduce your personal footprint - but it won’t save the climate. Richard Eckard explains.
Like many Americans concerned with climate change and energy security, I reacted with high hopes to the President Obama’s proposal to reduce leaks of methane gas from oil and gas drilling. But on closer…
Natural gas wells in the USA have considerably higher levels of leakage — fugitive emissions — than officials predicted…
