New infrared video reveals growing environmental disaster in L.A. gas leak
2015-12-24 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Washington Post: A runaway natural gas leak from a storage facility in the hills above Los Angeles is shaping up as a significant ecological disaster, state officials and experts say, with more than 150 million pounds of methane pouring into the atmosphere so far and no immediate end in sight. The rupture within a massive underground containment system -- first detected more than two months ago -- is venting gas at a rate of up to 110,000 pounds per hour, California officials confirm. The leak already has forced...
