Huge clouds of methane have been detected by satellite over Chevron's Gorgon LNG project in northern WA, prompting a warning from the United Nations.

Methane is thought to be responsible for about 25 per cent of global warming.

I can tell you that Curtis Island has always had that problem.

I asked Gladdy locals about it, because yeah, you’d see a storm coming from the west and you could watch it break apart before it got to you. They all told me it’s not unusual.

Edit: if I had to guess, that’s where the incinerators are.
