Critics of the push say carbon capture technology is still unproven, methane leakage could add untold greenhouse gasses to the atmosphere, and transport complications all make blue hydrogen a much dirtier fuel than the name implies. Global Oilfields.

Livestock raised in concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs), produce more methane than cows that graze on grass. He says he has seen cases in South America where people have worked to transform degraded cattle ranches into cocoa plantations. They have planted banana trees alongside cocoa, which needs shade when young.

Manure is also rich in nitrogen, it points out, but intensive farming models which separate livestock from crops - for example, the reliance on soy from South America as feed for cattle in Europe - make it impractical to use natural manure as a primary source of nitrogen, leading to greater reliance on synthetic products.

Lot’s of Methane. Some of you might already be aware of the ticking time bomb called methane. In 2008, scientists found that a giant amount of methane (about 50 gigatons) is trapped in the form of permafrost in Arctic regions.

As if natural gas, which is primarily methane — the second most abundant greenhouse gas behind carbon dioxide and a major contributor to climate change — isn’t bad for the climate. Granholm’s line that gas is cleaner ignores the fact that depending on how much methane is leaked, fossil gas can be as bad for the climate as coa l.
