Satellite Images Reveal #MegaLeaks of Potent Greenhouse Gas
UCLA's #StopMethaneProject ranked the 25 oil and gas sites with the largest methane emissions rates worldwide.

Published March 18, 2026
"Researchers with the Stop Methane Project at the University of California, Los Angeles, used data from #CarbonMapper—a non-profit that uses remote sensing technology to pinpoint and quantify methane emissions—to rank these mega-leaks. They’re spread across a small handful of countries, including the #US, with the majority in #Turkmenistan. A whopping 15 of the 25 largest leaks are concentrated in this #authoritarian state."

First Greenhouse Gas Plumes Detected With #NASA-Designed Instrument
"The nonprofit #CarbonMapper has released the first #methane and carbon dioxide detections from the #Tanager1 satellite. The detections highlight methane plumes in Pakistan and Texas, as well as a carbon dioxide plume in South Africa."

"Once in operation, the spacecraft will scan about 50,000 square miles (130,000 square kilometers) of Earth’s surface per day. #CarbonMapper scientists will analyze data from Tanager-1 to identify gas plumes with the unique spectral signatures of #methane and #CarbonDioxide — and pinpoint their sources. Plume data will be publicly available online at the Carbon Mapper data portal."

#Tanager1
Tanager-1, a satellite equipped with advanced NASA technology, has been launched to monitor methane and carbon dioxide emissions globally. Developed by the Carbon Mapper Coalition, this mission aims to detect and quantify emission sources with high accuracy, contributing significantly to climate
