Help us identify methane gas leaks
Did you know there are thousands of gas leaks in our area?
Did you know that the gas leaks cost ratepayers millions of dollars a year in wasted gas?
Here's the Concern
Gas leaks are made of a flammable gas called methane. Leaks come from pipes that supply homes with this methane, sometimes called "natural gas". Methane is used for cooking and heating. This can cause or worsen asthma, particularly in children and the elderly.
Methane also causes climate change. Stopping gas leaks is an important environmental justice issue.
Here's how you can Help
We are committed to mapping out the gas leaks in downtown Silver Spring. You can sign up to join us on one of our twice a week scheduled walks.
