Oil and natural gas boom causes methane emissions to increase
2016-03-16 04:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: Like carbon dioxide, methane is one of the most important greenhouse gases. After a period of stagnation around 2000, atmospheric methane concentrations started to rise again in 2007. So far, the causes have been unknown. According to the recent study of climate scientists of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), at least 40% of this increase result from the growing production of oil and natural gas in the northern hemisphere. The results are now published in the Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics...
EPA Introduces New Climate Crackdown on Methane Emissions Amid U.S.-Canada Announcement

EcoWatch: On the heels of President Obama and Prime Minister Trudeaus joint announcement on new climate measures, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced it will implement a rule to limit methane emissions from existing oil and gas facilities. EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy said the agency will start work immediately on the regulations, meant to reduce methane emissions 40 to 45 percent below 2012 levels by 2025. Obama and Trudeau focused on methane in their agreement, along with other...

NAM Reacts to EPA Announcement about methane regulations.
2016-03-11 14:31:10| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
In his statement following Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) announcement to regulate methane from existing oil and gas sources, National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) VP of Energy and Resources Policy Ross Eisenberg urged the administration "to avoid issuing any unnecessary or duplicative regulations that would limit manufacturers' access to critical energy resources." Eisenberg cited reductions in GHG emissions and rises in economic value, jobs, and solutions development.
