Methane (CH4) is the smallest member of the alkane series of hydrocarbons. Its common name is "natural gas" and it is an important fuel.
Anne Evans
Methane is a by-product of burning fossil fuels and also created by methanogenic bacteria which respire anaerobically in wet, boggy environments and in the digestive systems of cows and other ruminants.
Anne Evans
Methane is one of the gases responsible for the "greenhouse effect", and livestock farming is a significant source of this problem.
