The Global Methane Pledge, a US-EU-led effort announced during the Glasgow COP-26 meet, has over 100 nations aiming to cut methane emissions by 2030 by

The Global Methane Pledge seeks to cut methane emissions by 30% by 2030 from 2020 levels.

A 20% cut understates the pledge's agreed collective target.

A 45% cut overstates the commitment countries actually made.

A 100% cut would mean eliminating methane entirely, which is not the pledge.

It was announced during the Glasgow COP-26 and led by the United States and European Union.

Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, warming far more than carbon dioxide over the short term.
