Environment News Service: New standards to reduce emissions of the greenhouse gas methane, volatile organic compounds and air toxics from the oil and gas industry were issued by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency on Tuesday. The proposal is a part of the administration's strategy under President Barack Obama's Climate Action Plan to cut methane emissions from the oil and gas sector by 40 to 45 percent from 2012 levels by 2025. But the American Petroleum Institute, an industry group, says the new standards are...

EPA Moves to Cut Oil and Gas Methane Emissions
2015-08-18 21:01:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Climate Central: The Environmental Protection Agency on Tuesday proposed new rules meant to help combat climate change by curbing methane emissions from new hydraulically fractured crude oil wells and natural gas pipelines and other infrastructure. The measure, part of the Obama administration's Climate Action Plan, seeks to cut methane emissions from the oil and gas industry by up to 45 percent below 2012 levels over the next 10 years. Methane is about 35 times more potent than carbon dioxide as a heat-trapping...
