New space satellite pinpoints industrial methane emissions

“Methane may not be as abundant in the atmosphere as carbon dioxide, but with a global warming potential, many times greater than carbon dioxide, monitoring and controlling industrial emissions of this potent gas is imperative to helping combat climate change.”

GHGSat satellite Claire can detect methane emissions down to the facility level, drawing from other available satellite data, like Copernicus Sentinel-5P to map methane hotspots around the world.
