What Does CH4 Stand For?
CH4 stands for Methane
CH4, commonly known as methane, is a colorless, odorless gas and a major component of natural gas. It is a potent greenhouse gas, with a global warming potential significantly higher than carbon dioxide over a shorter time frame. Methane is produced through both natural processes, such as the decomposition of organic matter in wetlands, and anthropogenic activities, including livestock digestion and fossil fuel extraction. Its management is crucial for mitigating climate change and reducing environmental impacts.
