PRINCETON, New Jersey, Aug. 2 [TNSscienceresearch] -- Princeton University issued the following news release:
Wells that extract natural gas from underground often leak large amounts of methane, a powerful greenhouse gas, into the air. A team of Princeton University researchers has found that, in one of the biggest gas-producing regions, most of these emissions come from a tiny subset of the wells, a finding with major implications for how to control the problem.
