<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; color: black;">ABSTRACT:
</span><span style="font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Methane is the second-most important greenhouse gas and has contributed roughly 0.5 °C to global warming relative to pre-industrial times. Natural sources are currently
responsible for about 40% of methane emissions, and are expected to rise as temperatures warm, particularly from wetlands, freshwater systems, and thawing permafrost. While technologies for destroying methane emissions from higher concentration sources are
being developed, there are no existing technologies for mitigating atmospheric methane at background atmospheric concentrations (2 ppm). The topic of atmospheric methane removal was the focus of a 2024 National Academies consensus study and is receiving increased
attention from the academic research community. This presentation will explore the role that methane plays as a contributor to rising temperatures and consider hypothesized atmospheric methane removal approaches as part of a climate response portfolio.</span></p>
