Proud of this prize which is not a win for @gmethanehub and our diverse and fantastic team, but a win for all our grantees that are relentless in keeping 1.5C alive fighting to reduce methane emissions, the emergency brake solution we have at hand to reduce temperature in the short term. Also congrats to the amazing group of cohorts and their wonderful causes

[Global Methane Hub @Gmethanehub]

Did you know? Methane accounts for nearly half of current net warming, yet only 1% of philanthropic climate funding, and 2% of overall climate finance is directed toward its mitigation.

[McCall MacBain Foundation @mccallmacbain]

We’re thrilled to see these new investments towards global methane reduction efforts and proud to support the work of the Global Methane Hub.

Cutting #methaneemissions is one of the fastest, most cost-effective ways to fight #climatechange.

[Global Methane Hub @Gmethanehub]

Today, we were proud to participate in the Biden-Harris Administration’s White House Super Pollutants Summit and to announce over $300 million in new funding to continue this important work!
