Is methane gas worthless or does it have some use?

Natural gas used to heat homes and fuel power plants is methane.

Oh...well then why not capture the methane? Or is that not practical?

re post #20.....some maybe have completely forgotten or never had high school chemistry / physical science.

Good to see an expert graciously remind posters that nat-gas and methane are the same.....Russia has a large gas field waiting to be harvested.
