Study Says Wetland Trees Significant Source Of Greenhouse Gas Methane

RedOrbit: While wetlands represent an enormous source of atmospheric methane, researchers taking measurements of the gas at ground level in these regions have noticed a significant drop in methane levels compared to what they have measured in the air around tropical areas.
