Fred Krupp, president of Canada’s Environmental Defense Fund (EDF), gave a recent TED talk about the organization’s plans to launch a satellite in orbit that will gather data about the impact of methane gas on the planet. MethaneSAT aims to help cut methane emissions 45 percent by 2025.

MethaneSAT’s primary target seems to be be the oil and gas industry.
