US in discussions with Russia on methane: Kerry
Glasgow, 5 November (Argus) — The US and Russia discussed the issue of methane today at the UN Cop 26 conference, Washington's special presidential envoy for climate John Kerry said.
The US and the EU earlier this week announced that 106 countries joined a pledge to cut their methane emissions by at least 30pc collectively by 2030, compared with 2020 levels. This was up from the 22 countries initially part of the agreement when it was launched in October.
But the three largest emitters — China, Russia and India — have not joined the agreement. The three are collectively responsible for more than a third of global methane emissions.
