California is launching $100 million methane-detecting satellites while borrowing over $6 billion to cover healthcare shortfalls due to expanding free healthcare to illegal immigrants and a reportedly insolvent Medi-Cal system. Despite being a large carbon dioxide emitter due to wildfires, the state seeks to track and reduce methane emissions. The satellite data will be used to locate and monitor methane emissions, enabling agencies to work with industry to stop leaks. While requesting federal aid for fires and signing spending to fight Trump's policies, the governor acknowledges the federal government's help with wildfire cleanup.
