Why methane matters

While carbon dioxide gets most of the climate spotlight, methane is the stealthy super-pollutant warming our planet—fast. In this episode, Fei Fei explores why methane emissions are one of the most urgent and solvable climate challenges today. She speaks with Marcelo Mena, CEO of the Global Methane Hub and former environment minister of Chile.
Main topics covered:
· Where methane emissions come from (hint: it’s not just cow burps)
· Why methane accounts for nearly half of today’s warming
· How countries and companies can cut emissions using existing tools—often at low or no cost
· Why global cooperation on methane is gaining real momentum
