Most of us have heard about global warming and its climate change consequences, and the importance of reducing emissions of carbon dioxide by decreasing fossil fuel use. Less well known are the other gases that contribute to the problem and why we should also be concerned about them.

Journet will also explore the fallacy that natural gas is ‘the clean fossil fuel.’
