An empathetic person is someone who can share another person's feelings. If you tell an empathetic person that your heart is broken, she might touch her own heart and gaze at you sadly through moist eyes. Empathetic is a recent term; it comes from empathy, which was coined by the German philosopher Rudolf Lotze in 1858. Lotze believed that when you look at a work of art, you project your own sensibilities onto it.
Landfills are the single largest human source of methane emissions in the world. Even with the best technology, most of the methane from landfills is released into the atmosphere. By composting, the generation of greenhouse gases, particularly methane, is avoided.
Methane (CH 4) is a gas formed as part of the process of coal formation â coalification. When coal is mined methane is released from the coal seam and the surrounding disturbed rock strata.Methane can also be released as a result of natural erosion or faulting.The methane content in coal seams generally increases the deeper the seam, and also with age.ethane is released during the process of extracting coal in both surface and underground mining. The released methane then mixes with air, which becomes highly explosive if methane concentration levels reach 5-15%. Methane explosions are devastating, causing significant loss of life and damage to property.
