Methane Levels Reach an All-Time High
A from NOAA finds that levels of atmospheric methane, a potent heat-trapping gas, have hit an all-time high.Methane is roughly than carbon dioxide, and while it stays in the atmosphere for only around a decade, as opposed to centuries, like CO2, its continued rise poses a major challenge to international climate goals.“Here we are. It’s 2020, and it’s not only not dropping. It’s not level. In fact, it’s one of the fastest growth rates we’ve seen in the last 20 years,” said Drew Shindell, a climate scientist at Duke University.To gauge methane levels, scientists regularly gathered...…A from NOAA finds that levels of atmospheric methane, a potent heat-trapping gas, have hit an all-time high.Methane is roughly than carbon dioxide, and while it stays in the atmosphere for only around a decade, as opposed to centuries, like CO2, its continued rise poses a major challenge to international climate goals.“Here we are.
