Study Says Methane Cuts Are Essential to Keep Warming Below 2C
Key Takeaways
- A new study argues methane and CO2 should not be treated as interchangeable in climate planning.
- The authors say current ambitious net-zero targets still allow peak warming above 1.85C without methane cuts.
- Methane’s stronger warming effect and shorter lifetime make it especially important for near-term temperature limits.
- The study calls for stringent methane reductions alongside net-zero CO2 targets.
