Waste disposal industry in the United States, Favorite Eco -activists for Musion Processing Efforts, makes much more damage to the planet than they think, writes Reuters.
Potential threat conclusions can be made based on multi-monthly monitoring data carried out by ordering air quality control of California regulators. It was found that there are 43 percent of fixed emissions of methane – gas that contributes to global warming. In this they are bypass and manufacturers of fossil fuels, and agriculture.
NASA’s reactive movement laboratory and SCIENTFIC AVIATION, which is engaged in tracking emissions, collected data from 2016. It turned out that the work of some dumps of the leading garbage operators of the United States led to education six times more methane than the American Environmental Protection Agency considered. The ten largest polygons emissions produced about two times more gas than the authorities assumed.
California Study shows that the global waste processing industry may have a much larger role in speeding up global warming than regulators assumed. It also demonstrates possible omissions in the United Nations prepared by the United Nations (UN), scientists believe.
Now the leading American companies engaged in waste processing are Waste Management Inc and Republic Services – included in the World Dow Jones Sustainable Development Index (Sustainability WORLD INDEX), which acts as a guide for those who want to invest in socially responsible projects. Among the major investors of these companies are funds controlled by billionaire-philanthropist Bill Gates and the founder of one of the largest investment companies in the world of Blackrock Larry Fincom. They both actively campaigning a business to pay attention to climate issues.
On June 18, major methane emissions recognized Gazprom. There they reported that on June 4th there was a leak of 2.7 million cubic meters of gas. The problem was discovered by Kayrros, which previously recorded emissions in the area of coal mines in South Africa.
Methane is considered one of the main causes of global warming, which already creates problems not only for the planet, but also for the economy. Due to climate change with difficulties, manufacturers of machinery and products are facing.
