The IPCC’s Sixth Assessment, released in August, emphasizes that limiting climate change requires capping total carbon dioxide emissions, “reaching at least net zero CO2 emissions,” and making major cuts in methane and other greenhouse gas emissions. Today we face a double black diamond, and in a few years it will be a cliff.

Lost or unaccounted for gas can also be explained by differences of accuracy between sophisticated and highly sensitive meters on major gas pipelines and the less accurate versions attached to homes and businesses. Dye oversaw the accuracy of NW Natural’s more than 700,000 meters from 2000 until 2012.
