Reducing Methane Emissions to the Atmosphere

Steven C. Wofsy, PhD ’71, Abbott Lawrence Rotch Professor of Atmospheric and Environmental Science

Concentrations of methane in the atmosphere have tripled since pre-industrial time, contributing to human-caused warming of the climate. This talk will introduce MethaneSAT and MethaneAIR imaging spectrometers intended to observe methane emissions from the oil and gas value chain and other sources (landfills, intensive agriculture), with the goal to provide actionable data to mitigate methane emissions and slow climate warming.
This event was held at Harvard Griffin GSAS Alumni Day on April 6, 2024.
