We need to talk about methane: why net zero isn’t just about CO2

20 September; 9:00 – 10:00am

Reducing methane emissions might be the single most effective strategy to limit global warming – so why do we mainly talk in terms of carbon emissions? We know methane matters. What action is needed to deliver on the Global Methane Pledge agreed at COP26? And can we go further?
