The main sources of methane for the decade 2008–2017, estimated by the Global Carbon Project [17] "Methane global emissions from the five broad categories for the 2008–2017 decade for top-down inversion models and for bottom-up models and inventories (right dark coloured box plots).
The Global Methane Initiative (GMI) is a voluntary, international partnership that brings together national governments, private sector entities, development banks, NGOs and other interested stakeholders in a collaborative effort to reduce methane gas emissions and advance methane recovery and use as a clean energy source. [2]
The International Methane Emissions Observatory (IMEO) of the UN Environment Programme is an initiative [1] which tackles the problem of methane emissions by collecting, integrating, and reconciling methane data from different sources, including scientific measurement studies, satellites, industry reporting through the Oil and Gas Methane Partnership 2.0, and national inventories.
Methane emissions from fossil fuels have remained around a record high of 120 million tonnes since 2019, according to the International Energy Agency's 2024 Global Methane Tracker report.
According to the Global Methane Assessment published in 2021, methane emissions from livestock (including cattle) are the largest sources of agricultural emissions worldwide [40] A single cow can make up to 99 kg of methane gas per year. [41] Ruminant livestock can produce 250 to 500 L of methane per day. [42]
Rapid and large-scale efforts to slash human-caused methane emissions could slow global heating by as much as 30%, according to an EDF analysis. Others were critical of the announcement as not ...
According to the EPA’s Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program, methane emissions dropped in seven oil- and natural gas-producing basins by up to 87% from 2019-2023.
The Global Carbon Project (GCP) is an organisation that seeks to quantify global greenhouse gas emissions and their causes. [2] Established in 2001, its projects include global budgets for three dominant greenhouse gases—carbon dioxide (CO 2), methane (CH 4), and nitrous oxide (N 2 O)—and complementary efforts in urban, regional, cumulative, and negative emissions.
