🟢 Methane mitigation confirmed in Iraq following the repair of a leaking gas pipeline.

🛰️ @UNEP's MARS has verified via satellite that methane emissions from this source were no longer observable following the application of a protective coating to repair corrosion.

[International Methane Emissions Observatory (IMEO) @MethaneData]

@UNEP @UN Secretary-General António Guterres has called for an increased response to MARS satellite alerts—this case is a clear example of the potential countries can tap into by translating data into action 👏.

[International Methane Emissions Observatory (IMEO) @MethaneData]

🏭 Methane emissions are emerging as a key issue for the future competitiveness and sustainability of the steel sector.

Today, institutional investors issued a clear signal to the market: addressing methane is both a climate and financial imperative.

[International Methane Emissions Observatory (IMEO) @MethaneData]

🤝 Better data is needed so companies can drive and track real emission reductions: By engaging with @UNEP’s Steel Methane Programme, the first global initiative focused on metallurgical coal methane in steel, the sector can measure, report, and #CutMethane.

[International Methane Emissions Observatory (IMEO) @MethaneData]

📈 Progress is underway, but much greater ambition and implementation are needed to seize one of the world's biggest climate opportunities.

[International Methane Emissions Observatory (IMEO) @MethaneData]

🚨 In a landmark address, United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres issued a global Call to Action to #CutMethane to accelerate climate progress and advance energy security. 🧵

[International Methane Emissions Observatory (IMEO) @MethaneData]

to the information needed to target #ClimateAction.

🤝 Through IMEO, UN Environment Programme is helping turn this science, data and transparency into practical methane mitigation and answer the Secretary-General's call.
