  • Methane traps up to 36 times more heat in the atmosphere than carbon dioxide, but while carbon dioxide sticks in the atmosphere for centuries, methane dissipates after about a decade.
    World leaders pledged earlier this year to reduce the amount of methane seeping into the atmosphere.
    As Mike Drolet reports, a new satellite capable of spotting methane leaks as they happen has been launched and the real-time data will be available to anybody with a computer.

    Great now, we'll know how much methane is going into the atmosphere and how our governments and billionaires will keep on doing what they're doing.

    Now if they could only tax volcanic and glacial activity, which are a huge emitter of methane gases.

      Volcanic activity accounts for less than 1%. At least that's what the science says. Where do you get your information from?

    cheers and welcome.....but it will be difficult to monitor that because of a low temporal resolution. Company can temporarily put a pause or livestock biz men can move animals at data acquisition time.... and resume emission when satellites pass. landfill is a different story

    Why do some people find thrill-seeking activities such as bungee jumping or skydiving exciting rather than scary?
    Whether it is bungee jumping, skydiving, other extreme sports, thrill-seeking theme park rides and even scary movies, in such instances we want to feel the limit and how we breach it: that we reach a state beyond our capabilities.
    We then enjoy the state. There is pleasure in exercising a certain level of control over fear.
    The pleasure of having control over fear then becomes stronger than the instinct of fear that surfaces.
    When fear dominates us, it feels like it penetrates every cell of our bodies, all the way to our bones’ marrow. That is why the pleasure we experience when we feel a certain level of control over fear is very powerful.
    However, if we felt that our lives had a higher eternal purpose, and we set ourselves on a path to attain that purpose, we would then feel no need for these kinds of transient pleasures, no matter how strong they are.
    We would also then not fear anything because we would see that we are controlled by the upper force, which wishes solely to develop us in order to benefit us with its eternal and perfect quality of love, bestowal and connection.
