Fixing the Leaks: What Would it Cost to Clean Up Natural Gas Leaks?
Methane is a potent climate pollutant: it is the second most important greenhouse gas behind CO2 and, pound-for-pound, it is dozens of times more potent than CO2.

Quantifying Cost-effectiveness of Systematic Leak Detection and Repair Program Using Infrared Cameras
About 30% of the US anthropogenic methane emissions originate from the oil and natural gas sector. Emissions are partly leaks and partly engineered vents.

Power Switch: An Effective, Affordable Approach to Reducing Carbon Pollution from Existing Fossil-Fueled Power Plants
CATF’s study, Power Switch, proposes a common sense, highly cost-effective approach under Clean Air Act Section 111(d) for reducing carbon pollution from existing power plants.

Alternative Approaches for Regulating Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Existing Power Plants under the Clean Air Act
During the fall of 2013, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) began stakeholder engagement and regulatory processes to develop a proposed rule to regulate greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) from existing fossil fuel-fired power plants under Section 111(d) of the Clean Air Act (CAA).

Upstream Implications of Coal to Gas Switch Under CATF’s 111(D) Proposal
The Clean Air Task Force and The NorthBridge Group recently analyzed two existing fossil power plant emissions scenarios for 2020, with and without a new policy under Clean Air Act Section 111(d).1 Without the proposed new policy, they predict 1,553 Tg CO2 emissions from coal EGUs, and 484 Tg CO2…

Comments on EPA’s Proposed 2014 RFS Volume Requirements
In its proposed adjustments to the RFS mandate for 2014, EPA would address the blend wall by reducing the annual volume requirements for advanced biofuels and, more significantly, for corn ethanol. CATF’s comments detail the environmental benefits of EPA’s proposal.

Letter of Support for the Feinstein-Coburn Bill to Eliminate the Corn Ethanol Mandate
CATF supports the Feinstein-Coburn bill in conjunction with a diverse collection of groups concerned about corn ethanol and the RFS, including environmental organizations, anti-hunger advocates, livestock and poultry producers, restaurant owners, small engine manufacturers, and others.
