methane

Canada has taken a major step in cleaning up its oil and gas sector. We’re the first country to commit to methane emission regulations for the industry, marking an important shift toward climate protection.

Canada’s fossil fuel industry will soon have to make sure a potent form of its carbon pollution doesn't escape from its operations, in order to protect the environment, clean the air and save over 10 billion dollars in avoided climate change costs, according to new federal rules.

New technologies employing brute force as well as artificial volcanic action are being developed to better seal thousands of inactive oil and gas wells in Canada that are leaking methane, a greenhouse gas with an outsized impact on global warming.

An extensive report by the three countries in the North American Free Trade Agreement suggests Canadian homes and kitchens continue to generate more and more waste.

In this era of climate action, trying to sell natural gas with weak methane regulations is like trying to sell oil that produces higher emissions. The world is less and less interested.

The Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers says it supports Alberta's goal of slashing methane pollution by almost half, but is also lobbying for the government to weaken the rules.

The Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers said its plan to cut methane emissions "incorporates several of the same ideals" as a new global effort by oil and gas firms.

Canada’s oilpatch could get a big head start on reducing emissions of a powerful greenhouse gas for a "near−zero" cost, says an academic study on the price of methane reduction.

A new study confirms that a type of unregulated emission, that doesn't require industry transparency, accounts for 94 per cent of methane released in Alberta,

Greenpeace is calling on the new B.C. government to “stand firm” in the face of industry lobbying efforts, as an internal document sheds light on past attempts to influence provincial climate policy.

The oilpatch is lobbying the government to ease up on rules to factor in unproven technologies.

Opposite tactics, opposite results. As the U.K. racks up climate wins, Canada might want to take notes.

Environment Minister Catherine McKenna released details Thursday of the Trudeau government’s plan to crackdown on methane pollution from oil and gas companies.

The oil and gas industry says controlling for methane will be costly and burdensome. One company disagrees.
