I4C 2024 Workshop: Delivering methane reductions at scale

Methane is responsible for one third of global warming, and without bold action now, global methane emissions are projected to continue rising at unprecedented levels with major implications for people, economies, and the planet. This workshop session showcased two high-impact methane abatement programs - Vietnam's 'Low-Carbon Rice Program' and Pakistan's 'Finance for Lowering Emissions in Waste Sector' - and how these two programs are scaling up methane reductions from the sectors. These efforts demonstrate how carbon markets can drive significant methane reductions and help meet global climate goals.
