Methane emissions reduction could significantly reduce rates of global warming at a relatively low cost, major research warns. As such, the report emphasises that methane mitigation is "one of the best ways of limiting warming in this and subsequent decades".

Billed by the fossil fuel industry as a climate solution, dozens of planned blue hydrogen projects in Europe could consume more natural gas each year than France, and produce emissions on a par with Denmark, a DeSmog analysis has found.

The current push to expand the petrochemical industry and increase LNG exports would lock in an increased demand for natural gas at a time of worsening climate change. Every stage of natural gas production and distribution releases methane pollution, a powerful greenhouse gas.

Hydrogen is also present in compounds like methane and coal. This gas could be a potent source of clean energy , and, according to the U.S. To make it usable as a fuel, hydrogen must be separated from water, coal, natural gas or animal or plant waste. produces annually comes from methane via steam reforming.

The complex contains a circuit board of pipes and steel tanks that cough out steam, flames and toxic substances as it creates the building blocks for plastic from natural gas liquids. On clear nights, he says, he can see the flares burning, releasing a gas cocktail of carbon monoxide and methane. Credit: Julie Dermansky.

Leakage has certainly been a bête noire in the natural gas sector, and something that happens far more frequently than was assumed, as reports of recent years seem to confirm. True, hydrogen gas is extremely light, and prone to dispersing rapidly, producing dilute gas mixtures far less flammable than pure H2.

coal first and then later oil and natural gas?to While CO 2 may be the greatest contributor to climate change, other gases such as methane and nitrous oxide are also responsible for creating the greenhouse effect, therefore, solutions must also focus on the reduction of these gases.

The Trump administration has weakened rules limiting venting or flaring of methane from oil and gas production on public lands and requiring reporting of methane emissions from most oil and gas production. Methane is a greenhouse gas more potent than CO2, although it has a shorter lifespan in the environment.
