Description (excerpt):
Our current report provides an updated analysis of the magnitude of GHG emissions currently accounted for from federal lands and waters. Specifically, we add emissions estimates for calendar year 2012 using the same methodology utilized in the 2012 analysis. We also include an appendix characterizing indirect emissions from natural gas and oil production. We focus on methane emissions from natural gas and oil production to highlight the importance of these emissions and their contribution to climate change.
