  2. Atmospheric methane - Wikipedia

    This was confirmed in 2010 when a study showed methane levels were on the rise for the 3 years 2007 to 2009. After a decade of near-zero growth in methane levels, "globally averaged atmospheric methane increased by [approximately] 7 nmol/mol per year during 2007 and 2008.

    Globally averaged atmospheric concentration and its annual growth rate. [17] In April 2022, NOAA reported an annual increase in global atmospheric methane of 17 parts per billion (ppb) in 2021—averaging 1,895.7 ppb in that year—the largest annual increase recorded since systematic measurements began in 1983; the increase during 2020 was 15.3 ppb, itself a record increase.

    In 2013, atmospheric methane accounted for 20% of the total radiative forcing from all of the long-lived and globally mixed greenhouse gases. [63] Between 2011 and 2019 the annual average increase of methane in the atmosphere was 1866 ppb. [12] From 2015 to 2019 sharp rises in levels of atmospheric methane were recorded. [64] [65]

    Methane traps about 28 times the heat per molecule as carbon dioxide but lasts a decade or so in the atmosphere instead of centuries or thousands of years like carbon dioxide, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Carbon dioxide and methane levels have been higher in the far ancient past, but it was before humans existed.
