It isn’t just us saying it; Penn State University has also noticed greenhouse gases are declining as natural gas production is increasing significantly.

Earlier this month I wrote a piece here noting the EPA data shows greenhouse gases are dropping in the Marcellus and Utica regions even as natural gas production grows. Now, Penn State University, my alma mater, says the same thing.

Here’s what Penn State says (emphasis added):

The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released the 2016 greenhouse gas emissions inventory in August. The report provides a comprehensive accounting of GHG emissions by a variety of emitters including onshore oil and gas production. The individual basins can be analyzed as well as type of greenhouse gas (carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N20), and/or various fluorinated GHG), emission ranges, and facilities.
