    DescriptionWhen it comes to climate change, the focus tends to be on carbon dioxide. But hot on its heels is methane (CHâ‚„), the second most important greenhouse gas contributing to the climate emergency.

    The UK, along with more than 100 other countries, made a pledge at the 2021 COP26 meeting in Glasgow to cut global methane emissions by at least 30% from their 2020 level by 2030.
