In a paradox of air pollution, a decrease in man-made pollutants led to more methane in our atmosphere. And natural wetlands released more of the planet-warming gas at the same time ...
European Union rules intended to curb methane emissions could add ~13% to the cost of crude oil imports and strike a heavy ...

When COVID slowed humans, methane spiked anyway, and a new study reveals why
When Covid lockdowns emptied highways and grounded jets, global carbon dioxide emissions briefly dipped and city skies turned an unfamiliar shade of blue. Yet in the same window, methane in the ...
Methane levels in Earth’s atmosphere surged faster than ever in the early 2020s, and scientists say the reason was a ...
Researchers have released an initial assessment of the emissions data MethaneSat gathered before it suddenly went dark. The ...
Methane is one of the most powerful greenhouse gases, warming the planet far faster than carbon dioxide over the short term.
Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas with strong heat-trapping capabilities. Although there is less methane in the atmosphere ...
In an ironic twist, lower air pollution during Covid lockdowns fuelled an unprecedented surge in the powerful greenhouse gas ...
NO x reacts with air to form hydroxyl radicals. These go on to destroy methane, turning it into carbon dioxide, a less potent greenhouse gas. So, less NO x inadvertently led to more methane persisting ...
Methane comes in different isotopic signatures. Methane from fossil fuels like natural gas leaks or coal mines is heavier, ...
Methane spiked in the early 2020s as wetter conditions boosted emissions at the same time the atmosphere’s chemical “cleaner” weakened.
Methane, a highly potent greenhouse gas that is more than 80 times stronger than carbon dioxide over a 20-year period, is ...
