Reducing Agricultural Methane Emissions from Rice and Manure

Methane is responsible for approximately 20 – 30 percent of current global warming, and methane emissions continue to increase worldwide. In the U.S. and China, agriculture is a major source of methane emissions. For both nations, one potential shared avenue for reducing methane is through more sustainable agricultural practices. The U.S. and China are now taking action to reduce methane emissions from the agricultural sector, particularly rice cultivation and manure management. What is the current state of agricultural methane mitigation in these two countries? Given the different policies and technological approaches, what lessons can both countries share with each other? 

Join The California-China Climate Institute to learn about a new report launch focused on China’s strategies to reduce methane from rice and manure, and to hear from issue experts’ insights on these topics.
