United States Includes Dam Emissions in UN Climate Reporting for the First Time

We happy to see this follow-up story in The Revelator reporting on the submission of our petition to the U.S. EPA to add dams and reservoirs to the EPA’s Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program.

The Revelator story is here — take a look: https://therevelator.org/dam-emissions-reporting/

A quote from the story:

“To our knowledge, the U.S. is the first country to include estimates of methane emissions from flooded lands in their greenhouse gas inventory,” the EPA press office told The Revelator.

Thanks for reading!
