- A team of researchers found that lightning bolts increase the ability of the atmosphere to cleanse itself or breakdown greenhouse gases (GHGs).
- The extreme amounts of hydroxyl radical (OH) and hydroperoxyl radical (HO2) were discharged during lightning events.
- This OH initiates chemical reactions and breaks down molecules like the GHG methane.
