Dylan Jervis spots methane emissions from low Earth orbit (he's a physicist)

Dylan was a kid who found comfort in math and fun in music, but ultimately he followed a path to science. He became a physicist and was inspired to study climate change by a speech that US Secretary of Energy Steven Chu gave, as well as his time working at a backcountry lodge in the Canadian Rockies.Dylan Jervis now works for GHGSat, a company that monitors greenhouse gas emissions, most notably methane, from space. His recent paper in Science used a constellation of high resolution satellites to estimate global methane emissions from individual sources.
