Methane is the second most abundant greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide, albeit a distant second. Observations from satellites and ground sites suggest that biomass burning—the burning of plant and other organic material that releases carbon dioxide and methane—contributed about 20% of the total methane released into the atmosphere in 2007.

Burning methane by flaring as it is released converts it to carbon dioxide, another greenhouse gas but one that is less harmful on a pound-by-pound basis. The new data suggests we have overestimated flaring’s effectiveness and, as a result, underestimated its contribution to methane emissions and climate change.
