Methane is the second most important greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide, contributing about 0.55°C C present-day global warming relative to pre-industrial times. As a result, in 2021 countries signed the Global Methane Pledge, committing to reduce methane emissions by at least 30% of 2020 levels by 2030.
