Got Methane?

November 7, 2023 by Marion Leave a Comment

Methane (CH4) is a greenhouse gas that is 28-30 % more potent than CO2.  That makes it a big concern.  According to the UN’s Climate and Clean Air Coalition, “Reducing human-caused methane emissions is one of the most cost-effective strategies to rapidly reduce the rate of warming and contribute significantly to global efforts to limit temperature rise to 1.5°C. “
