“So, to give you an idea, the warming potential of a methane molecule is 28 times that of a carbon dioxide. So, if we cut methane, say, to zero now, what would happen is the rate of warming would slow down.”
“Not because it solves climate change, it's because it gives us some breathing space. Because it's so powerful, if we can limit that, it then gives us time to actually remove carbon dioxide.”
“So unfortunately, methane levels are still going up and we haven't turned the corner. It's interesting because in CO2 terms that emissions have sort of flattened out. We flattened the curve. But with methane, it's still rising.”
