Two years since the introduction of the Global Methane Pledge, ambitious action on methane emissions reductions from the private sector has been lagging behind. Slow progress, unambitious and misleading climate plans, and false solutions all have formed part of the slow path the meat and dairy companies have decided to embark on, which prevent us from transitioning into a more sustainable production system and consumption pattern. With methane emissions representing 50-80% of these companies’ emissions footprint, it is imperative that these companies get on a faster lane to reduce their methane emissions.
