From Better Breeding to Cow-Burp Vaccines, Emerging Solutions Could Curb Agricultural Emissions shannon.paton@… Thu, 03/06/2025 - 14:47 Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas — 84 times stronger than carbon dioxide over 20 years. Because it traps heat more intensely in the short-term than other GHGs, cutting methane emissions now can have a fast and significant impact on slowing climate change. A good place to start is farms. Nearly half of global methane emissions come from agricultural activities such as livestock production, rice cultivation and burning crop waste. And with global food demand rising, these emissions are projected to grow. The good news is that promising approaches are emerging to rein in agriculture’s climate impact. A new WRI report provides...
