Saw a similar article about the same thing on hn a few weeks ago. It pointed out this is actually a good thing. This was leaking before and being factored in to calculations but now we know where it is coming from and it turns out it isn't going to require insande lifestyle changes or crazy new tax schemes to cap this portion of methane emissions instead we can just retrofit the gas and oil infrastructure, which is a lot less radical than other things we might have to do.
Of course nothing the west does will make much of a difference as long as China keeps escalating it's emissions.

- perfunctory 6y ago> we can just retrofit the gas and oil infrastructure I have an issue with the word just. Just watch how gas industry jumps to the opportunity to increase their costs.
