The Group That Includes Brazil Aims to Reduce Global Production of Pollution Responsible for Climate Change Throughout the Natural Gas Supply Chain.

Several countries, including Brazil, have joined an initiative to combat greenhouse gas emissions throughout the entire natural gas supply chain. The goal is to measure, monitor, document, and verify emissions of methane, carbon dioxide, and other polluting gases, from production to gas distribution.

Notable participants in this collaborative group include Australia, Canada, Colombia, countries from the Eastern Mediterranean Gas Forum, European Commission, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Mozambique, Norway, South Korea, the United Kingdom, and the USA.

The U.S. Department of Energy emphasized the importance of providing reliable information about natural gas emissions to global markets. Efforts are being made to develop a global framework that is supported by both importing and exporting countries, aiming for sustainability in the natural gas sector.

Furthermore, this group’s agreement is an important step considering the European Commission‘s proposal to impose limits on Methane emissions from gas imports starting in 2030, which may pressure international suppliers to reduce leaks of this environmentally harmful gas.

The importance of regulating Methane emissions has also been recognized in discussions about how developing countries will be able to measure and verify their own gas emissions in the near future.

Groups of Countries Unite to Measure and Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions in the Natural Gas Sector

Dissatisfied with seeing people sleeping on the street, a man named Ryan Donais started building small mobile homes so that homeless people can escape the cold, each equipped with a bed, running water, electricity, and heating.

Workers were opening a modern road in Dover when they found, 6 meters below the asphalt, a 3,500-year-old boat made of stitched oak and plant fibers.

A giant brown band visible from space, approximately 8,850 kilometers long, connected Africa to America in the Atlantic Ocean, and satellites revealed that it is neither land nor pollution, but the largest accumulation of seaweed in the world, which broke records in 2025.

Two 17-year-old Kenyans use coconut shells, corn cobs, and recycled materials to create an exhaust filter that reduces 93.3% of pollutant particles and wins an environmental award in Africa.

Engineers want to carve through Africa with a giant canal to bring water from the world’s second-largest river to a dying lake on the edge of the Sahara Desert that has already lost 90% of its water.

Consumers eat six times more chicken than in the 1960s, global meat supply quadruples in 60 years, and FAO report reveals the invisible cost on the plate: livestock could drive 80% of the increase in agricultural emissions over the next decade.

Motorcyclist sees excavator arriving at the edge of a river in Bosnia, calls neighbors in minutes and turns a hydroelectric project into a resistance lasting more than 10 years with five expired concessions.

A Brazilian tank almost became a star in the Middle East, surpassed tough tests against legendary armored vehicles, and disappeared from the market when Engesa most needed to win.

The best states to live in Brazil have just been revealed: Distrito Federal, São Paulo, and Santa Catarina dominate the national quality of life ranking in 2026.

387 tons of stone from a mansion slid intact across a closed state highway and over a canal in less than four hours when the historic restaurant Chez Odette’s was lifted and moved about 300 meters in New Hope.

China’s major economic artery receives a megaproject worth $11.39 billion to allow ships to pass through the Three Gorges: new locks carved into the mountain promise to double the logistical capacity of the Yangtze River by 2050.

Filipino fishermen pull from the sea a 3.6-meter Chinese underwater drone with Mandarin markings near Palawan, and the Coast Guard sees in the object another piece of the silent race to map submarine routes in the South China Sea.

There is oil below the oil that Brazil already extracts: Petrobras confirmed a new accumulation in the Búzios field, at a depth of 5,600 meters, in a zone below the reservoir already operating in the Santos Basin.

404 km off the coast of Rio de Janeiro, an oil company drilled 5,855 meters into the ocean and discovered the largest oil and gas reserve found in a quarter of a century.

Vaca Muerta can supply gas to Brazil, Chile, Uruguay, Bolivia, and Argentina for up to 124 years, but it requires more than $10 billion in infrastructure to distribute the gas.

Criminals dig a secret tunnel to tap into Petrobras pipeline, steal 100,000 liters of fuel and put thousands of people at risk of explosion in the Federal District.
