First Aerial Footage of Aliso Canyon Natural Gas Leak

First Aerial Footage of Aliso Canyon Natural Gas Leak


YouTube caption: Aerial footage filmed Dec. 17, 2015, shows potent, climate-damaging methane gases escaping from a massive natural gas leak at a storage facility in California’s Aliso Canyon, with the San Fernando valley pictured in the background. The giant methane plumes were made visible by a specialized infrared camera operated by an Earthworks ITC-certified thermographer.

One of the biggest environmental disasters in US history is happening right now, 1700 homes have been evacuated in SoCal so far due to a massive invisible methane leak of 110,000 pounds/hr that engineers have been unable to fix since October. Only visible through infrared cameras.
