Acting rapidly to deploy readily available methane mitigation measures by sector can immediately slow global warming

Acting rapidly to deploy readily available methane mitigation measures by sector can immediately slow global warming

Methane mitigation is essential for addressing climate change, but the value of rapidly implementing available mitigation measures is not well understood. In this paper, we analyze the climate benefits of fast action to reduce methane emissions as compared to slower and delayed mitigation timelines....
