California, a state known for its aggressive #greenhousegasemissions reduction policies, is ironically the nation’s greatest emitter of one: sulfuryl fluoride. As much as 17% of global emissions of this gas, a common pesticide for treating termites and other wood-infesting insects, stem from the United States. The majority of those emissions trace back to just a few counties in California, finds a new study led by Johns Hopkins University. https://yubanet.com/california/california-leads-u-s-emissions-of-little-known-greenhouse-gas/
