Reducing methane emissions is critical to achieving global climate targets.
Landfills and dumps release large amounts of methane, a greenhouse gas far more powerful than CO₂ in the short term.
Addressing waste-sector emissions offers one of the most practical and cost-effective ways to slow warming in this decade. Solutions already exist, and with the right policies and investment, they can deliver rapid impact.
