However, MIT has recently unveiled a groundbreaking solution—a new catalyst designed to effectively remove methane from the equation. This innovation offers hope in rendering agriculture less ...
Scientists further analyzed distinct chemical signatures in the methane to determine whether it came from fossil fuels or a natural source — in this case, wetlands. The Congo, Southeast Asia and ...
As the dust collides with sea salt spray, chemical reactions naturally occur, breaking down atmospheric methane. Iron salts added to the atmosphere could mimic this natural process and release ...

But some of Titan’s chemistry just shouldn’t be — methane is a volatile chemical that is easily broken down by sunlight, so its presence in the atmosphere points to some source of replenishment.
This Martian methane mystery poses an interesting challenge for scientists. On one hand, there are known chemical reactions that can take the molecules known to exist on Mars and turn them into ...
Almost two decades ago, the atmosphere’s levels of methane — a dangerous greenhouse gas that is over 80 times as potent as carbon dioxide in the short term — started to climb. And climb.
The host country, Azerbaijan, has put forward an action agenda, which includes pledges to increase battery storage capacity six-fold, dramatically expand electricity networks, and cut methane ...
Sitting in his cramped office in Paris, Manfredi Caltagirone admits that one of the world’s highest-profile efforts to cut methane emissions so far isn’t stopping the gas from escaping and ...
Caltagirone heads the International Methane Emissions Observatory, or IMEO, an informal police force that's the tip of the spear in the global war against the potent greenhouse gas. His team at ...
