Methane (CH4 ) is a short-lived but highly-potent greenhouse gas and is estimated to have contributed to one-third of all human-caused global warming relative to the pre-industrial period. Curbing methane emissions is therefore crucial to addressing the climate crisis. However, while there have been extensive studies around public opinion for climate policies generally and those that aim to reduce CO2 , we lack research around public opinion for methane policies specifically. Though another greenhouse gas, methane is distinct from CO2 because it is both a pollutant that is released from oil and gas production and an input into the energy system as natural gas, where it is frequently used for heating and cooking. This means that the public has everyday experience with methane gas and it has economic value. Health problems caused by methane pollution are also more localized than those of CO2 , including contributing to the formation of ground-level ozone. Given these distinct characteristics, what does the public think about policies that directly tackle methane pollution?
