In a full scientific assessment published ahead of the 29 October Energy Council, the Climate Crisis Advisory Group finds the supply fears driving calls for delay do not hold – and warns that a core question, whether a rule enforced through tradable certificates will cut methane at all, is barely being asked.
High gas prices are the reason given for delay. They are also why oil and gas companies will not cut methane unless the rules make them. Meeting the rule costs importers about €0.07 per MMBtu, 0.3% of today's gas price.
As COP30 opens in Belém, humanity has entered the era of climate overshoot, where global temperatures have breached the 1.5 °C threshold. The Climate Crisis Advisory Group (CCAG) is urging for a renewed commitment to the Paris Agreement - the only legally binding global framework capable of holding nations to account.

Methane is responsible for over a third of warming the world has experienced to date. It’s over 80 times more powerful than CO₂ - but it doesn’t last as long in the atmosphere. In practical terms, that means action on methane today could slow heating within decades.
A new report from the Climate Crisis Advisory Group (CCAG) warns that without rapid action to cut methane – one of the most powerful and overlooked greenhouse gases – the world could lock in up to 0.3°C of additional warming this decade. That difference could determine whether climate impacts stay within a manageable range or push humanity beyond its capacity to adapt.
The climate crisis is often framed in terms of melting ice caps, rising seas, and increasingly frequent heatwaves. But beyond the rising temperatures, an invisible health emergency is unfolding. One not reflected in heat charts, but instead with issues with people’s hearts, lungs and brain function resulting in lives cut short.
