I finally got around to watching this video Adam made about methane, which is more-or-less my day job lately. I'd say "ten out of ten. no notes", but I sent him one small note. I'm an obstreperous bugger. That said, this is the best lay explainer on methane I've seen. You should watch it. 👇
Methane is devastating our climate, but cutting it would be a huge (easy) win. So why are emissions still going up?! 📈 youtu.be/EzLnqj1Xt3U
