Methane and Global Warming in the 21st Century (video)
The science and politics of methane. These were the main topics of a webinar, which we held with Robert Howarth in April 2018.
Methane and Dual Accounting at the UNFCCC
To reduce methane emissions, we need accounting systems that represent its warming contribution properly.
Gas leakage in fossil fuel extraction (video)
The leakage of gas during the extraction of fossil fuels is normally not visible. Experts have made the gas leakage visible with infrared cameras in an oil extraction site in Veracruz, Mexico.
Can the climate afford Europe’s gas addiction?
How much gas can Europe afford to use in its future energy mix? Climate change scientists have come up with results: only nine more years of burning gas and other fossil fuels.
Methane Emissions – The greenhouse gas footprint of natural gas
Robert W. Howarth, 26.10.2016 Natural gas is widely (and falsely) promoted as a bridge fuel that allows continued use of fossil fuels while reducing greenhouse gas emissions compared to oil or coal. Indeed, less carbon dioxide is emitted when burning natural gas, but natural gas is composed mostly of methane. Emissions of even small amounts […]
