On today's episode, we’re going to look at methane. While we know that a major source of greenhouse gases is carbon dioxide, methane also plays a huge part. It doesn't stay in the atmosphere as long as carbon dioxide but one molecule of methane has more than 80 times the warming power of a molecule of CO2.

Then Newlight Technologies Co-founder and CEO Mark Herrema discusses how his company developed a unique process that creates a bioplastic material by combining air with methane.
