Human-caused methane emissions have contributed to at least one quarter of global warming since the preindustrial era. Since methane is 80 times more potent than carbon dioxide (CO2) in trapping heat over the first two decades after its release, abating methane is considered a critical near-term strategy for reducing emissions.[
And coal communities and fracking villages and all the rest.
