Colorado is launching plans for innovative technologies that monitor the 3rd largest source of methane emissions: landfills.
Currently, EPA landfill monitoring is largely based on the honor system, resulting in 95% of landfills in 8 states having at least 1 violation of EPA limits which damages the environment and public health.
Colorado’s new system comes via funding from the EPA. Elections matter.
