July 04 2024 - 3:05AM
ZEFIRO METHANE CORP. (Cboe Canada: ZEFI) (Frankfurt: Y6B)
(the “Company”, “Zefiro”, or “ZEFI”) is pleased to
announce that its subsidiary Plants & Goodwin, Inc. (“P&G”)
has been featured in an episode of Future Earth, a new
informational series by the British broadcasting conglomerate BBC,
through its BBC News arm. In this third episode of the Future Earth
series, BBC News Anchor Carl Nasman explores some of the challenges
around energy transition, including orphaned and abandoned well
sites in the United States which could potentially be leaking
methane.
Nasman was reporting in-person from a remediation job site in
Upstate New York with P&G personnel including Project Manager
Josh Sandberg and CEO Luke Plants, who were both interviewed on
camera. Mr. Plants explained the importance of scaling up P&G’s
operating bandwidth to address the issue of methane leaks. Former
BBC Science Editor David Shukman then gave additional insights to
build upon Mr. Plants’ remarks, particularly with respect to how
stopping methane leaks can expedite broader environmental
remediation efforts at a global scale.

Zefiro Founder and CEO Talal Debs commented, “The methane leak
crisis in the United States has gained considerable attention in
the past couple of years, and we are glad to see that major
worldwide news outlets such as the BBC are doing in-depth reporting
on the subject. We are very grateful that Carl Nasman traveled to
the United States to film at one of our job sites and interview
P&G team members. Zefiro is uniquely positioned as a key actor
in curbing methane emissions in the United States, and we are
honored to have been recognized for the work we are doing in making
our homes and neighborhoods safer for all Americans.”
Luke Plants, who is CEO of P&G and Senior Vice President of
Business Development for Zefiro commented, “It was a pleasure to
work with BBC News Anchor Carl Nasman, who I feel did an excellent
reporting job for this episode of Future Earth. As efforts to
reduce methane emissions in the United States continue to ramp up,
businesses like ours play an increasingly important role in
carrying out remediation efforts, in addition to educating the
public on what actually happens at the job site level.”
