Abstract
The Global Methane Status Report shows that while significant progress has been made since the launch of the Global Methane Pledge, further efforts are required to align with the level of ambition and action needed to meet the Pledge. Produced by UN Environment Programme and the Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC), the Global Methane Status Report provides a comprehensive assessment of progress and remaining gaps in efforts to cut methane - a potent greenhouse gas responsible for nearly a third of current warming. The report shows that although methane emissions are still rising, projected 2030 emissions under current legislation are already lower than earlier forecasts due to a mix of national policies, sectoral regulations, and market shifts. However, the report warns that only full-scale implementation of proven and available control measures will close the gap to the Global Methane Pledge’s target of a 30% cut from 2020 levels by 2030.
