Thank you.
My second topic relates to methane. Methane has been getting a lot of press, rightly so, for many reasons in the last several months and over the last few years. One thing we saw even during the COVID downturn and the freezing of economies is that worldwide methane emissions increased in the United States and so forth. As you say in paragraph 5.61, “methane is a potent greenhouse gas with at least 25 times the warming potential of carbon dioxide over a 100-year period”.
I've read this part, and I've read some stuff online with regard to methane. We have put in place—a number of countries have put in place—measures to reduce methane emission. That is going to be one large aspect of meeting GHG emission targets for any country.
Is it a matter, in your view, Commissioner, that the data being collected needs to be strengthened or that the measures in place need to be strengthened or both? It is an economic win to reduce methane emissions and an environmental win to reduce methane emissions as we move forward.
