New research shows rising hydrogen emissions since 1990 have indirectly intensified climate change and amplified the impact of methane.
New research shows rising hydrogen emissions since 1990 have indirectly intensified climate change and amplified the impact of methane. Limiting leaks from future hydrogen fuel projects and cutting methane emissions will be key to securing benefits from hydrogen as a clean-burning alternative to oil and gas.
ising global emissions of hydrogen over the past three decades have added to the planet’s warming temperatures and amplified the impact of methane, one of the most potent greenhouse gases, according to new research published Dec. 17 in Nature.
Authored by an international consortium of scientists known as the Global Carbon Project, the study provides the first comprehensive accounting of hydrogen sources and sinks.
