Hello everyone, it's Friday! We have a new story for you:

Although hormone therapy has helped menstruators regulate their periods and avoid pregnancies when used as intended, women in India have been coerced to take these pills to "purify" themselves to attend religious functions.

During , countries and industries made new commitments to reduce methane gas leaks.

It remains to be seen if these pledges are followed through, but Nigeria is an example of what happens if they don't: wasted methane could've powered the country twice over while leaving a $450-million-sized hole in unpaid fines.

Ekpali Saint speaks to Niger Delta residents about gas flaring's impacts on their health, agriculture, and infrastructure:

It's Friday! Happy Thanksgiving weekend to those who celebrate.

Check out this visual made by @alexip718 for Ekpali Saint's feature: While Nigeria slashed oil production, it lacks enforceable gas flaring policies or carbon pricing. As a result, the country has flared 5x that of Canada for the 7th straight year, despite the latter dialing up its oil production.
