Methane emissions from wetlands are rising faster than those from industrial sources, prompting concerns about a climate feedback loop.

Cows are a major source of methane, a greenhouse gas far more potent than carbon dioxide and a significant driver of climate change. Nevada has about 435,000 cattle, including more than 30,000 dairy ...

Methane levels in Earth’s atmosphere surged faster than ever in the early 2020s, and scientists say the reason was a surprising mix of chemistry and climate. A temporary slowdown in the atmosphere’s ...

The amount and proportion of the powerful heat-trapping gas methane that humans spew into the atmosphere is rising, helping to turbocharge climate change, a new study finds. Tuesday’s study finds that ...

The Global Methane Pledge, launched at COP26, aimed to cut global methane emissions by 30% by 2030, but progress has stalled. UN satellite data reveals over 14,000 methane leaks, with nearly 90% going ...

Cleaner air didn’t mean lower methane. New research shows how chemical shifts and La Niña rains pushed methane emissions to record levels.
