methane

Scientists have identified genetically inherited gut microbes that regulate how much methane a cow produces.

If growth continues, it could negate or reverse any gains made by reducing carbon dioxide emissions.

"The technology has major environmental ramifications and has the potential to alter the economic and political landscape in many U.S. states."

Four million people living in the Arctic permafrost area will be affected by damage to infrastructure.

Sólheimajökull glacier, which flows from Katla volcano, found to be major source of the greenhouse gas.

The permafrost beneath certain lakes is thawing rapidly, which will release a significant amount of methane into the atmosphere.

Georgian Prime Minister Mamuka Bakhtadze declared a day of mourning and said it was time the government stopped putting its citizens' lives at risk.

The rover has discovered ancient organic material that may be biological in origin, although this has not yet been proven.

"We knew that every solar system body with an atmosphere and a solid rocky surface has dunes on it, but we didn't know what we'd find on Pluto."

If the Arctic permafrost melts, greenhouse gasses equivalent to burning all of the world's forests two-and-a-half times over could be released.

Enceladus is a "hot spot" in the search for extraterrestrial life.

More greenhouse gases are not what we needed right now.

The bacteria, found in a subglacial lake, could be helping to limit the emission of methane into the atmosphere.

Robust model shows for every one degree Celsius warming, 4 million square kilometers would be lost.

It's a vicious cycle: As the weather warms, the Earth's permafrost is melting, releasing greenhouse gases that are going to make the planet even hotter.

The greenhouse gas, the main component of natural gas, had previously been unregulated.

The greenhouse gas hasn't gotten the attention such a potent carbon-polluter deserves. But that's about to change.

Methane Doubled Over Los Angeles During Leak and Elevated Levels of Harmful Toxins Found

The Interior department's proposal would require oil and gas producers to use technology to limit flaring at oil wells.

While the leak is substantial, it is small compared with methane emissions from other oil- and gas-related sources.

To keep global temperatures from rising, we must cut down on animal agriculture.
