MAPPED: UK’s methane hotspots
The UK’s worst methane hotspots include the last coalmine, livestock farm clusters, landfills, power plants and North Sea oil and gas wells, according to Watershed’s analysis.
The process has also thrown up serious doubts over the UK’s ability to calculate its methane emissions.
The Guardian and Watershed Investigations analysed official methane emissions data from the National Atmospheric Emissions Inventory (NAEI) along with information on the Watershed pollution map to identify Britain’s methane hotspots.
