This NASA's visualization of global atmospheric methane (CH₄) for 2021 highlights the greenhouse gas's sources and distribution patterns. Methane, which traps heat 28 times more effectively than CO₂ over 100 years, has risen by over 150% since industrialization. Major sources include wetlands, agriculture, and fossil fuel extraction. Using data from the Global Modeling and Assimilation Office and other models, the visualization aids in understanding methane's impact on climate change and improvi

What is methane gas?

Did you know that methanol is an automotive fuel, too? As a cleaner burning vehicle fuel than diesel and gasoline, methanol can fuel cars and cargo trucks, helping support the transition away from high-emission energy sources for some industries, either directly as a fuel or indirectly as a fuel additive.
