methane

Cities in Asia and the United States emit the most heat-trapping gas that feeds climate change, with Shanghai the most polluting, according to new data that combines observations and artificial intelligence.

Carbon dioxide concentration has increased by more than 10% in just two decades, reports World Meteorological Organization

The amount of the powerful climate-changing gas methane spilling out of oil and gas equipment, coal mines and landfills globally is nowhere near fully documented and what is known is “only scratching the surface” according to the CEO of one the companies that tracks methane with its own satellites.

Research challenges idea that sending liquefied natural gas around the world is cleaner alternative to burning coal

The amount and proportion of the powerful heat-trapping gas methane that humans spew into the atmosphere is rising, helping to turbocharge climate change, a new study finds.

New research into the behavior of microbes in icy soils shows twice as much planet-warming carbon could be at risk of escaping into the atmosphere.

For the first time, Alberta's oil and gas industry has exceeded the province's own regulatory limit for natural gas flaring.

The city has become the first in B.C. to phase out the use of gas-powered water heaters in homes in a move that will roughly halve the amount of harmful emissions the heaters generate by 2035. In a Tuesday announcement, the city said that replacement water heaters in homes and duplexes must meet strict efficiency requirements starting next year.

There are more than 2,600 landfills across the U.S., and collectively, they leak more than 280 million tons of carbon dioxide into the air each year — the equivalent of 74 coal-fired plants. So why are government regulations on the facilities so lax?

A U.S. federal grant has helped bolster Electrified Thermal Solutions, which is manufacturing a new heat-conducive brick that the company's founders claim will dramatically reduce the fossil fuel needs for heating in heavy industry.

Last year offered energy providers in the region a glimpse of the conditions they may need to adapt to as the world warms and seasonal weather patterns shift.

Researchers have found that plans by gas companies to blend natural gas and hydrogen in an effort to reduce their emissions will likely backfire by creating more gas leaks.

Aerial monitoring finds they emit methane at levels at least 40 per cent higher than previously reported to the Environmental Protection Agency.

It’s lovely to think there are vast sources of continuously produced clean hydrogen from chemical reactions of water on hot rocks within the Earth, ready to be tapped as a clean energy source and solve the world’s energy problems. A great story, but it’s likely too good to be true.

Donald Trump's petro-masculinity is certainly getting political oxygen from Conservative leaders in Canada.
