#Methane isn't in the WHO's air quality guidelines, but it's a potent #GreenhouseGas and a key ozone precursor, behind 35% of the world's harmful #ozone. Monitoring, from sensors to satellites, helps detect, measure, and mitigate emissions. tinyurl.com/5x38d22x

Photon and phonon join forces! Prof. Tang Junwang's #InnovativeTsinghua team from Dept. of Chemical Engineering developed a photon-phonon co-driven mode for #methane combustion in @pubs.acs.org. Achieving high efficiency and offering a scalable solution for #climate action.

Fraxinelle

A flammable flower....

This reminds me of the burning bush that Moses saw on Mount Horeb.

Scientific name: Dictamnus albus

🌾 India's rice paddies leak more methane

Satellite maps and modelling suggest India's rice paddies emit more methane than expected, with 74.7% of it in the monsoon growing season. Managing water then could cut it.

Colorado became the 1st state today to codify the 2024 EPA methane rules into state law, creating an enforceable firewall with continuous leak monitoring & flaring phase-outs despite federal deregulation rollbacks.

In 2023, we already reclassified Methanobrevibacter using genomes via #SeqCode. However, that reclassification is not valid under the current International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes (ICNP). In our new IJSEM paper, we fixed this📄🔬

Exxon just confirmed it: we're on track to blow past 2°C by 2050 — and coal is why.

Their own Energy Outlook projects 30B tons of CO2 in 2050. Nearly 3x too high.
Not activist rhetoric. Exxon's own modeling.
