How about finding a way to capture that methane and then sell it as natural gas? That way, it is burned, producing carbon dioxide (less potent) and water vapor (still the most prominent greenhouse gas).
Stop it with the ACTUAL science!!
Yee Gawds, just treat it as a pile of discarded/recycled car tires, set fire to it.
In both cases the resulting soot will quickly settle downwind.
You mean like this? This facility will ‘compost’ chicken house waste and other organics to make and CAPTURE CH4, and selling soil enhancer solids.
Big landfill near me has stacks flaring it off every time I've been there. I kinda doubt there's enough to make it commercially viable.
That makes too much sense and doesn’t give them leverage to control us with.
Many landfills today are indeed fitted with a network of "biogas" wells, punched down through the layers of decomposing garbage. I've seen one location where the gas is piped to a nearby generating station where it powers a turbine. The generating station provides around half of the electricity needed by a waste water treatment plant in the same area.
Yeah, this latest "climate emergency" is nothing of the sort. Again.
Except I think they turn it into LP.
