Curbing emissions of methane from farming, fossil fuel operations and waste management is a crucial part of efforts to restrain runaway climate change.
Together with other measures that are currently available, the reduction could be as much as 45 per cent, it said.Many of these solutions are low cost and some even have "negative" costs, meaning that they would more than pay for themselves, the report found. "Fast and ambitious methane mitigation is one of the best strategies available today to deliver immediate and long-lasting multiple benefits for climate, agriculture, human and ecosystem health," UN Environment Programme chief Inger Andersen said in a forward to the report.
The new UN report evaluated impacts of methane emissions -- and the benefits of reducing them -- using five global climate models. "By capturing methane from oil wells and coal mines, and plugging all those leaks, a major driver of climate change is cut down to size while simultaneously creating new green jobs and improving air quality for us all," he said in comments to the Science Media Centre.'ETHICALLY UNTENABLE'
Damn! Just ripped a huge fart..😂😂😂
Bill gates is un ? FUCK THE CORRUPT UN 🖕🏼
