🤓 Inside Scoop...

Energy companies tout natural gas as a "greener" fossil fuel alternative because it produces far fewer emissions than coal when burnt for energy. The production of natural gas, however, can often produce leaks of methane gas, which is over 80x more effective than carbon dioxide at trapping heat in the atmosphere. Energy companies face increased pressure to monitor and control methane gas leaks during natural gas production.
