To the Prime Minister: methane emissions are 80 times more potent in trapping heat than CO2 in the first 20 years. Methane has been documented to leak or be actively vented into the air at every stage of gas extraction and distribution in Australia. The IEA has estimated Australia's under-reporting methane by up to 60 per cent. This invalidates all commitments, including the safeguard mechanism cap. Will you legislate to properly measure and stop the leaking and venting of methane?
