Plant Methane Surprises Climate Scientists Atmospheric scientists have long blamed cattle and microbes for the production of significant amounts of methane on Earth. But the discovery of a new large source of methane, a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming, is putting trees on the hot seat.  |

Grasslands Emit Greenhouse Gas Chinese researchers have found further evidence that plants emit significant quantities of methane - a potent greenhouse gas. But the latest findings also show that methane emissions depend not just on the species of plant, but the conditions in which they are growing.  |
