As US-based environmental research organisation ‘World Resource
Institute’.
Said earlier November 2015, that the daily carbon emissions caused by
fires in Asia in a month, were surpassing the average emissions set by the
United States. It even had made it into Guinness world records for 2015 for air pollution. If it was a comedy laugh year on yearn forest destruction towards wasted resource. Haze smog has
blanketed Singapore and Malaysia as well, straining diplomatic ties and has
recently drifted northwards to affect southern Thailand and the Philippines. How
can Earth withstand as no structure to combat heat raging gaseous fires. never mind a coordinated response on putting fire out. There
is much less methane in the atmosphere than CO2. This is about 1800 parts per
billion (ppb), compared with an estimated 390 parts per million of CO2. However
its potential for global warming has been estimated at 25 times greater than
CO2 .
Methane gas harvested obtained from extraction of which has been
suggested. Methane's impact on climate change, as it is one of the most potent
greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere. The 100-year global warming potential
of methane is over a 100-year period, it traps 29 times more heat per mass unit
than carbon dioxide and 32 times the effect when accounted for aerosol
interactions. Global methane levels, have risen to 1800 parts per billion (ppb)
by 2011, an increase by a factor of 2.5 since pre-industrial times, from 722
ppb, the highest value in at least 800,000 years.


Its concentration is higher in the Northern Hemisphere since
most sources (both natural and human) are located on land and the Northern
Hemisphere has more land mass.
The concentrations vary seasonally, with a
minimum in the late summer mainly due to removal by the hydroxyl radical. CH 4
+ ·OH → ·CH 3 + H 2 O This reaction in the troposphere gives a methane lifetime
of 9.6 years. Two more minor sinks are soil sinks (160 year lifetime) and
stratospheric loss by this reaction with ·OH, ·Cl and ·O 1 D in the stratosphere
(120 year lifetime), giving a net lifetime of 8.4 years. Oxidation of methane
is the main source of water vapor in the upper stratosphere beginning at
pressure levels around 10 Methane that ruminants give off, a type of drug
called monensin (marketed as rumensin™) has been developed. This drug is
classified as an ionophore, which is an antibiotic that is naturally produced
by a harmless bacteria strain. This drug not only improves feed efficiency but
also reduces the amount of methane gas emitted from the animal and its manure.

The whole of Asia is covered in smoke for autumn as Forests set alight by
fire.
Its an old tradition of slash and burn as all the Orangutan specie suffer. One case where an orangutan
suffered horrific burns after been accidentally set on fire by after been
accidentally set on fire by villagers in Indonesia, when they were trying to
remove it from the village in Indonesia, t hey were trying to smoke him out of
a fruit tree so it couldn't eat.
Like many orangutans in Indonesia, it had been
looking for a new habitat after its own habitat had been
destroyed by fire. The natural habitat had been destroyed to make way for there new unregulated palm oil industry. It is now been treated for burns as the palm oil industry gains new territory. As is now been treated for its injuries and is thought it will be able to survive looks very injured it is thought it will be able to make a full recovery.
