Environmental Defense Fund today released the Fleet Electrification Solutions Center, a free online resource that cuts through the complexity of truck electrification to connect fleet professionals with the solutions they need, all in one easy-to-navigate clearinghouse.

A new study out today in the journal Science finds that climate-warming methane emissions from flaring, the practice of burning off gas rather than capturing it for productive use, are five times higher than government estimates — primarily due to unlit and malfunctioning flares. Researchers conclude that flares are combusting at a 91% efficiency rate,
