Methane Sinks - Atmosphere
Atmosphere The atmosphere, and more precisely the troposphere, is the largest sink for methane. Methane in the troposphere reacts with hydroxyl (OH) radicals, forming mainly water and carbon dioxide. ... lowering of methane concentrations. Potential for control Our potential for control of the atmospheric methane sink is minimal and essentially lies in reduction of the amounts of methane emitted to ...

Frequent Questions | Methane to Markets Partnership | US EPA
Methane is 23 times as potent as carbon dioxide at trapping heat in the atmosphere and contributing to global warming. Over the last two centuries, methane concentrations in the atmosphere have more than doubled, largely due to human-related activities. Methane now accounts for 16% of global greenhouse gas emissions from human activities. Because methane ...

Methane Menace
"Accumulation of methane in the Earth's atmosphere has nearly doubled around the globe over the past 200 years. Scientists believe that rising concentrations of this "greenhouse gas," which absorbs and sends infrared radiation to the Earth, are causing changes in the climate and contributing to global warming." Livestock animals naturally produce methane ...
