Split-gas biogenic methane accounting: policy design, transparency, and international coordination

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Implications• GWP100 does not adequately reflect the warming behavior of biogenic methane, with significant consequences for how agri cultural emissions are reported and targets are set.• Describes how a split-gas framework can better align climate targets with the actual warming behavior of biogenic methane.• International cooperation among farmer organizations offers a practical pathway to advancing split-gas approaches in national and global climate policy.
