Reuters – Over the last five years atmospheric methane levels have risen at their fastest rate since record-keeping began in the 1970s, driven in part by natural sources, and fast-rising methane emissions could undermine efforts to limit global warming by mid-century.
Methane concentrations are rising faster than any other major greenhouse gas, with human activities driving at least two-thirds of global emissions, and cutting farming-related methane emissions could be key in the battle against climate change.
