Elon Musk's vision to revolutionize the auto industry for the sake of the planet's climate has been significantly advanced by his rocket company this week. SpaceX's launch of a new satellite in collaboration with the Environmental Defense Fund is set to greatly enhance the measurement of global methane emissions with unprecedented detail and accuracy. Methane, a major contributor to global warming, has a far greater impact on heat trapping compared to carbon dioxide. This development marks a crucial step in addressing climate change and underscores the urgency to tackle methane emissions.
