Climate Protection by an Alternative Use of Methane—The Carbon Moratorium
Abstract Despite a rising output, in the last few decades the known reserves of fossil energy resources have steadily increased. Additionally, there are in all likelihood tremendous reserves of methane hydrate. In view of the climate change, new means must be explored for its use as an energy source...
