Methane is identified as a primary greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming [1], [2], and is considered a significant human-caused driver of the phenomenon [3], [4]. The scientific consensus links the increased atmospheric concentration of methane directly to the global warming observed over the last 50 years [5], [6].

claimHuman activities, particularly the excessive use of fossil fuels as energy sources, contribute significantly to global warming by increasing the concentration of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and water vapor in the atmosphere.
claimMethane (CH4) emissions are the second largest human-caused driver of global warming, accounting for approximately 19% of the radiative forcing caused by long-lived greenhouse gases.
