@forourkidsalberta.bsky.social"...emissions are higher now largely because gov'ts across the country have rolled back several climate policy commitments. This includes weakened industrial carbon pricing, delayed #methane regulations, changes to electric vehicle policy, ..." #cdnpoli climateinstitute.ca/news/canada-...
@forourkidsalberta.bsky.socialSteve Smith (@exeter.ac.uk) also singled out cutting #methane emissions as one of the quickest ways to alter the course of global heating. Methane is responsible for about 30% of the warming experienced so far but remains in the atmosphere for only about 12 years.
@forourkidsalberta.bsky.socialAct now to protect and strengthen key measures to fight #methane pollution. For toxic-free air for your kids and communities, @cape-acme.bsky.social and @forourkidscanada.bsky.social invite you to add your name and stand with physicians and parents calling for action. cape.ca/action/harmf...

@uclalawemmett.bsky.socialSome U.S. gas exports come with a BIG methane footprint, which is increasingly clear thanks to satellite data – as are opportunities for mitigation. A new report by UCLA’s STOP Methane Project spotlights 15 of the highest-emitting #methane sources in key oil & gas basins law.ucla.edu/news/methane...
@rchady.bsky.socialDallas-based Energy Transfer is linked to four of the report's 15 sites. It's responsible for 75 #methane plumes – three times as much as the next operator. Other major corporate methane producers include Enterprise Products, Targa Resources and Enlink.
@dpcarrington.bsky.socialWho could have guessed?
The biggest super-emitter of #methane in the US, Energy Transfer, is run by major donor to Trump, who has gutted regulation

@sfsutcliffe.eurosky.social✨''The case for holding the line is not complicated:
- Methane traps roughly 80 times more heat than CO2 over 20 years, and is responsible for close to a third of the warming caused so far.'' #methane #complexity #science #climateaction #EU #MethaneRegulation
@lotteleicht.bsky.socialSatellites don't lie. EU Regulators shouldn't look away
A UCLA study, based on satellite data, has named the biggest #Methane "super-emitter" in the US
The #EU #MethaneRegulation should be implemented as adopted, not delayed, and not muted under external pressure

This is full of important information on the super heating #globalwarming of methane. Thousands have died from the heat this summer, soon +drought +famine to this major destabilizer.
