  • According to a Tuesday International Energy Agency analysis, the fossil fuel industry is failing to reduce methane emissions despite its promises to find and fix leaks.
  • The worldwide energy industry discharged 135 million tonnes of methane, a strong greenhouse gas, into the atmosphere in 2022.

IEA tells fossil fuel industry over methane leaks, states an Euractiv news source.

LNG Ships Are Still Emitting Dangerous Amounts Of Methane

  • New report from the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) highlights the need to control methane slips on ships that have switched to using LNG as fuel.
  • Researchers concluded that even when using 100 per cent renewable LNG, total methane emissions could double by 2030 compared to 2019, primarily through methane slips.

A recent news article published in the business green states that ships switching to LNG still leading to ‘dangerous’ methane emissions, report warns.

What does negative net zero carbon mean?

Negative net-zero carbon. The phrase sounds redundant or oxymoronic. But it is a real thing. You can have less than net-zero carbon emissions if you capture and use emissions that otherwise would be released as greenhouse gas into the atmosphere.

Traditional natural gas moved through pipelines comes from deep underground wells. It is often part of making petroleum.Therefore, even though natural gas burns cleaner and produces fewer emissions than oil, it is a fossil fuel.

Renewable natural gas...
