8. Innovations with Chemistry Major sources and uses of Methane Major sources include gas from animals, landfills, and mines Can be used for: Fuel Heating buildings Making explosives

9. Innovations with Chemistry Companies that Methane appeals to and why Methane appeals to them Oil companies such as Shell or Exxon Mobil 50-90% of all natural gas is made up of methane 1/5 of the world’s energy is made by fossil fuels/natural gas

10. Innovations with Chemistry Hazards and Precautions Highly flammable When mixed with water, methane can cause explosions Is a pollutant; aggravates greenhouse effect
