Methane converted into methanol at room temperature - just add light
Scientists have developed an efficient new way to convert methane into methanol at room temperature. The technique could help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and provide a cleaner way to make key products. While carbon dioxide gets most of the attention, it's not the only greenhouse gas changing the Earth's climate.
