Arizona Area: Methane Hotspot

Four Corners Region of The United States Has Huge Methane Concentration in Its Atmosphere- Satellite Image shows

“Satellite data has spotted a large cluster of methane gas that covers the sky over a portion of the southwestern United States. The finding shows that the EPA or Environmental Protection Agency is dramatically failing to appreciate the severity of methane leaks into the atmosphere. Residents of the affected area are not affected by methane levels, however, this is one of the factors creating global warming. The leaks take place when methane is pumped into coal mines. Methane levels are starting to worry scientists. . . . “
