What does the large range in potential methane CO2 equivalent evaluation imply for climate policy targets?

In this paper, the author explores how near-term (2023-2027) agricultural emission reductions would be reported under multiple emission metrics (GWP100, GWP20, GTP100 and two applications of GWP*) and discusses the potential implications for target-setting.

Methane: How does it compare to CO2, how is it reported, and what does this mean for limiting global warming?

Frequently asked questions on methane: this document provides an explanation of how and why carbon dioxide and methane differ, and explores what this could imply for climate policy, particularly in relation to agriculture.
