The primary justification for an METF-CH4 lies in the fundamental inadequacy of treating all greenhouse gases as equivalent under a single metric, such as CO2-equivalents (CO2e). Standard carbon trading schemes, like the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS), convert methane emissions into CO2e using the Global Warming Potential over 100 years (GWP100). This approach drastically undervalues methane’s short-term impact. A ton of methane emitted today is discounted to 28-34 tons of CO2e, obscuring its fierce near-term punch. Consequently, a power plant operator might find it cheaper to continue venting methane than to invest in abatement technologies, while the climate suffers an immediate spike in radiative forcing. An METF-CH4 would establish a separate cap denominated in pure tons of CH4, with its own price signal. This separation would allow policymakers to set an aggressive, declining cap for methane aligned with the Global Methane Pledge (a 30% reduction by 2030), creating a direct incentive to cut methane regardless of CO2 prices. metf ch4
