In science news, a new report shows significantly more methane gas could be leaking into the atmosphere than previously thought. The study found that a device used to measure methane escaping from natural gas facilities was consistently underreporting the emissions as a result of a technical glitch. Methane is a greenhouse gas that fuels climate change. The study’s findings could mean that natural gas fracking, which emits methane, is more detrimental to the climate than previously thought, and that climate change could be happening at an even faster rate than current estimates.
