Abstract |
The launch of the Methane to Markets Partnership in November 2004 committed the United States, along with 13 other countries, to advancing cost-effective, near-term methane recovery and use as a clean energy source. Public and private sector organizations around the world are now working together with government agencies to facilitate project development at agricultural operations, coal mines, landfills, and oil and gas systems. This collaboration is yielding important benefits, including enhanced economic growth and energy security, improved air quality and industrial safety, and reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. |
