Description

Methane is widely regarded as the second most important greenhouse gas the world needs to address in the fight against runaway climate change.


Tonne per tonne, it’s 82.5 times more potent than carbon dioxide over a 20-year period and is responsible for a third of the warming that has occurred so far.


In this episode, EIA Climate Campaigner Jack Corscadden and special guest Christophe McGlade, an energy expert with the Climate Crisis Advisory Group, discuss the impacts of methane and what’s being done to tackle the problem with Senior Press and Communications Officer Paul Newman.
