UPDATE: Since launching our own methane-tracking satellite earlier this year, California has helped close 10 large methane leaks in our state.
That pollution reduction is roughly the same as taking 18,000 gas-powered cars off the road for an entire year.

California is moving forward with a groundbreaking satellite project to track and reduce methane emissions.
With this innovative technology, we’ll be able to move faster to cut methane emissions — protecting Californians and tackling harmful pollution.
