How potent is methane as a greenhouse gas? Why do larger plants transpire more than smaller plants? Explain. What is the importance of photosynthesis to organisms other than plants? How do carbon dioxide levels affect an aquatic ecosystem?
BAKU (Reuters)-Fast-rising methane emissionscould undermine efforts to limit global warming by mid-century, prompting scientists and policymakers to urge aggressive action to curb output of the potent greenhouse gas. Nearly 160 countries have pledged a30% cut f...

Methane is a serious issue for landfills because it's a potent greenhouse gas, some 28 to 36 times more effective than carbon dioxide at trapping heat in the atmosphere. And landfill gas emissions are the third-largest source of methane emissions in the U.S., accounting for about 15 percent...
Atmospheric methane oxidationAnaerobic methane oxidationPurpose Soil is the crucial biological sink of methane, which is an important and potent greenhouse gas. The extensive biochar application in soil has also aroused interests in its influence on soil methane emissions. However...

Fracking has been blamed for leaking millions of tons of methane, a greenhouse gas that's more potent than carbon dioxide. Fracking is also associated with other airborne hydrocarbons that can cause health and respiratory issues. Fracking uses large amounts of water that can become contaminated and...
