Montreal’s municipal greenhouse gas inventory presents an incomplete picture of methane emissions. Cities are responsible for almost 1/5th of the global methane emissions caused by…
A nonprofit group, Carbon Mapper, will use data from NASA’s EMIT mission, plus current airborne and future satellite instruments, to survey waste sites for methane…
Nord Stream 1 and 2, two subsea pipelines for transferring natural gas from Russia to Germany, were both deliberately ruptured on September 26, 2022. Massive…
Easily synthesized chemical filter could stop the greenhouse gas from reaching the atmosphere. How can carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, be removed from the exhaust…
Capacity to monitor emissions to increase a hundredfold in the next three years. Countries that signed up to the 2015 Paris Agreement have committed themselves…
EMIT (Earth Surface Mineral Dust Source Investigation) was built to help scientists understand how dust affects climate. It can also pinpoint emissions of the potent…
Following unusual seismic disturbances in the Baltic Sea, several leaks were discovered last week in the underwater Nord Stream 1 and 2 gas pipelines, near…
Summer is in full swing in the United States, and people are turning down the thermostats for their air conditioners to beat the heat. However,…
“Just shrinking the size of our current food system won’t cut emissions much. Instead, we need to transform the very nature of that global food…
Scientists Announce Comprehensive Regional Diagnostic of Microbial Ocean Life Using DNA Testing Large-scale ‘metabarcoding’ methods could revolutionize how society understands forces that drive seafood supply…
Energy codes pilot study takes flight in New York The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) is lending its expertise to help New York City make…
As greenhouse gas emissions continue to warm the world’s oceans, marine biodiversity could be on track to plunge within the next few centuries to levels…
