@globalissues.orgRotting food in landfills makes methane, which traps 86x more heat than CO2 over 20 years
UNEP says food waste drives up to 10% of global emissions
FAO notes no real progress on cutting food losses since 2015 - 2030 goals to halve it is far off

@ember-energy.orgJust ten coal mines – less than 1% of the world's total – are estimated to cause nearly 5% of the total 41,400 preventable deaths caused worldwide by ozone formed from coal mine #methane 🫁
Identifying these coal mines is the first step 🔎

@cdarwin.c.im.ap.brid.gyThis report spotlights fifteen of the highest-emitting #methane sources in the three U.S. oil and gas basins that export the most LNG to Europe:
the Permian, Appalachian, and Haynesville basins.
It also assesses, for the first time, what we know
— and don’t know
— about potentially responsible […]

@ember-energy.orgNearly HALF of the 26,400 lives lost due to ozone formed from coal mine #methane can be SAVED with technology that already exists.
✅ Both pre-drainage and ventilation air methane oxidation are commercially proven.
🫁 Deployed together, they could prevent ~12,600 deaths
@climatemamaclaire.bsky.socialI had an opportunity to speak to the health impacts of polluting oil and gas wells on CBC’s Alberta at Noon.
@crystal159.bsky.social#Methane greenhouse emissions hit new record highs.
@crystal159.bsky.socialAs House Republicans crafted #Trump’s domestic policy bill last spring, the oil and gas industry watched closely, eyes trained on the fate of one policy in particular: a fee on excess methane emissions for major emitters in the oil and gas industry. #methane

@ember-energy.orgMore than half of the deaths linked to ozone formed from coal mine #methane trace back to a single country.
China’s coal sector accounts for an estimated 20,100 deaths globally that can be prevented over the coming decades – more than the rest of the world combined 🫁☢️
