Carbon emissions per capita, 2020 Carbon emissions per 1000 square miles, 2020. This is a list of U.S. states and territories by carbon dioxide emissions for energy use, [1] [2] as well as per capita [3] [4] and by area.
Methanation is the conversion of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide (CO x) to methane (CH 4) through hydrogenation. The methanation reactions of CO x were first discovered by Sabatier and Senderens in 1902. [1] CO x methanation has many practical applications.
Methane's GWP 20 of 85 means that a ton of CH 4 emitted into the atmosphere creates approximately 85 times the atmospheric warming as a ton of CO 2 over a period of 20 years. [23] On a 100-year timescale, methane's GWP 100 is in the range of 28–34. Methane emissions are important as reducing them can buy time to tackle carbon emissions. [24] [25]
Texas produces the greatest volume of petroleum and marketed natural gas and would likely be disproportionately impacted by the tax. In 2022, Congress passed the Inflation Reduction Act, which ...
The rule fines certain oil and gas facilities that exceed federal limits for methane emissions. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, 22 other states sue to halt planned federal methane fines Skip to ...

Climate TRACE (Tracking Real-Time Atmospheric Carbon Emissions) [1] is an independent group which monitors and publishes greenhouse gas emissions. [2] It launched in 2021 before COP26, [3] and improves monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV) of both carbon dioxide and methane.
Paul Sabatier (1854-1941) winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1912 and discoverer of the reaction in 1897. The Sabatier reaction or Sabatier process produces methane and water from a reaction of hydrogen with carbon dioxide at elevated temperatures (optimally 300–400 °C) and pressures (perhaps 3 MPa [1]) in the presence of a nickel catalyst.
