Methane comes in different isotopic signatures. Methane from fossil fuels like natural gas leaks or coal mines is heavier, ...

Methane is one of the most powerful greenhouse gases, warming the planet far faster than carbon dioxide over the short term. Yet much of the world’s methane escapes into the air from landfills, farms, ...

Scientists found that natural bacteria can eat methane, cut climate pollution, and turn waste gas into useful materials.

The state took a first small step toward requiring that dairies and livestock operations reduce their emissions of the ...

Atmospheric methane rose faster than ever in the early 2020s, driven less by fossil fuels and more by changes in nature itself.

When it comes to global warming and greenhouse gases, methane is one of the bad guys. It's the second most important contributor to climate change after carbon dioxide. However, quantifying the exact ...

An international team of researchers found that global emissions of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, rose faster than ever in the three years ending in 2022. In a new report from the Global Carbon ...

On Tuesday, Sept. 24 at 1 p.m., a rally will be held at the State Capitol, south side, to ask legislators to stop the use of methane gas. The rally aims to halt the expansion of a 1,100-mile-long ...

Methane spiked in the early 2020s as wetter conditions boosted emissions at the same time the atmosphere’s chemical “cleaner” weakened.

Through a combination of high-pressure experiments and optical spectroscopy, physicists have revealed new insights into the ...
