Arizona State University Landfills in the United States are ... more than half of these facilities are methane “super-emitters,” releasing more than 100 kilograms of the potent greenhouse ...
Methane is a heat-trapping greenhouse gas (GHG) that is 28 times more potent than carbon dioxide. Most methane comes from human activities - roughly 60 percent - such as agriculture, fossil fuels ...
Let’s keep organics out of the trash, so landfills are not their final resting place. And let’s tighten emissions controls nationwide, so small leaks don’t become super-emitters The EPA is ...

so we can pinpoint methane super-emitters to the specific well pad, compressor station or section of a landfill. You can see an example of the power of remote sensing in our recent paper in the ...
