A TYPE OF BACTERIA CAN FEED IN METHANE AND OTHER GREENHOUSE GASES. Its absorption capacity of methane and other greenhouse gases could help fighting climate change. Image: Ecoticias A BACTERIA COULD ABSORB GASES BEFORE THEIR EMISSION AND MAY BE A SOLUTION TO GLOBAL WARMING. (from an article sent by ECOTICIAS.COM / RED / AGENCIAS, 29/04/2014) The results published this Monday in “Nature” show how a single bacteria, 'Methylocella silvestris', found in soil and other environments in the whole world can grow both in methane and propane in natural gas. . The bacteria could absorb gas emissions of, natural origin as well as those generated by man before they are liberated into the atmosphere causing global warming, according to a new research in East Anglia University, Norwich, Norfolk, England. . The finding could help mitigating the natural emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere from human activitie, such as hydraulic fracking to produce non conve...
