The big methane hunt
Why there's a lot of new activity around an invisible gas
Welcome back to The Planet You Save May Be Your Own, a weekly newsletter on local & state climate action. I’m Taylor Kate Brown and this newsletter grows by word-of-mouth. Someone share or forward this edition with you? Sign up here. You can also read and share this edition online.
If all goes well, this time next week I’ll have a new story to share, one that expands on a climate issue long-time readers of The Planet You Save read about last year. Here’s another hint: it’s about methane, and this week, I’m using the bonus subscriber edition to help readers (and me) get our heads around some big efforts to cut methane leaks from gas & oil production, efforts that are likely going to ramp up this year, and how some are local.
