Methane is the fastest lever we have to slow global warming, and the tools and solutions exist.
What is needed now is decisive action to #CutMethane.

To slow global warming, methane emissions must be reduced by at least 30% this decade, but emissions remain high.
UNEP’s Methane Alert & Response System uses satellites to alert governments and companies of major leaks in real time.

UNEP is deeply saddened by the loss of Manfredi Caltagirone.
A devoted climate expert and colleague, his drive to create a better world touched many.
We send our condolences to his family and friends.

🆕 NEW SCIENCE: @UNEP’s IMEO and partners deployed aircraft and reveal a major Australian coal mine emits 3 to 8 times more emissions than reported.
🔑Effectively assessing emissions is essential to #CutMethane.

The Global Methane Pledge (GMP) aims to #ReduceMethane emissions by 30% below 2020 levels by 2030.
At #COP29, it reached 159 country endorsements and the GMP Ministerial reviewed progress and announced new commitments.

Today marked the first ever Ministerial of @UNEP's International #MethaneEmissions Observatory at #COP29.
We need @MethaneData to lead the way on the revolution on methane emissions data reporting 📉 and call on others to support its mission!

The EU🇪🇺 stepped up efforts to #ReduceMethane emissions with partners at #COP29 today.
The new 'Methane Abatement Partnership Roadmap' will further accelerate the reduction of methane emissions associated with fossil energy production and consumption.

DAY 1 - Capacity Building on Methane Emissions Reduction in the Oil and Gas Sector in Nigeria.
Marci Baranski shares an overview of @UNEP #IMEO @MethaneData mitigation strategies.
"We are committed to supporting Nigeria to leverage on these data to reduce emission"
#Methane
@UNEP 's @MethaneData Methane Emissions Observatory (IMEO) is hosting a specialized capacity-building workshop on methane, a powerful greenhouse gas, for Nigeria’s oil and gas sector. The workshop will take place from October 21 to 23, 2024, at the Abuja Continental Hotel.

Reducing methane pollution is among the most efficient ways to slow global warming. However, recent reports indicate that methane emissions are rising at alarming rates.

Thanks, @MethaneData, for an insightful presentation - #IMEO role set to grow with the need for data-based mitigation efforts. The EU wants to remain a leading player on methane, with our new regulation as the first step in that direction. Looking forward to our continued coop.

It was a real pleasure meeting with EU EVP @MarosSefcovic and his team.
We discuss how open, accurate, and actionable data are key for achieving the deep methane reductions science requires us in the next 68 months and avoid the worst effects of climate change.

To meet the #ParisAgreement it is critical we address rising methane emissions.
We already have cost-effective measures available, many of them in the oil & gas sector.

Global Methane Tracker 2024 is out now 🚨
It shows methane emissions from the energy sector remained near a record high in 2023.
But announced pledge & policies, including those made at COP28, have the potential to put them into decline soon.

Ramadan Kareem. As we embark on the holy month of #Ramadan, my fervent wishes for peace for all.
Ramadan is a time of compassion, reflection and solidarity with those less fortunate. In these difficult times, may this spirit guide our actions.
