Big oil has neglected to include well burnoffs in their calculations making those studies garbage.
A lot of the satellite data for methane is already available. Researchers aren’t finding what you’re describing.
MethaneSAT will launch next month, one of several satellites that are being deployed to monitor methane emissions across the globe to pinpoint major sources of the invisible but potent greenhouse gas. It is a partnership led by EDF, the New Zealand Space Agency, Harvard University and others.
Just wait.
What makes you so sure there can only be one singular big culprit, rather than multiple culprits of different sizes?
What exactly do you mean?
N3m37h’s apparent belief that absolutely every other industry besides oil/gas is irrelevant for climate change. Oil/gas is obviously the biggest chunk but agriculture, construction, etc. all need to change too.
I think what they’re saying is that the amount of pollution caused by oil and gas makes that caused by agriculture irrelevant.
Exactly
Ass u me much?
This is what I was referring to
No, but that 35-40% is not right by any means.
That’s the point I am making. All old studies should be taken with a bucket of salt.
Ok, I see. But still, 99% seems a little much, given a billion cows, the vast majority of which kept under conditions defined by humans to increase milk and meat production.
