This document provides an introductory overview of methane emissions and gas flaring, highlighting their critical role in accelerating climate change. It explains how methane—a colourless, odourless, yet highly potent greenhouse gas—traps significantly more heat than carbon dioxide and contributes to nearly 30% of current global warming. The document also identifies the oil and gas sector as the largest industrial source of methane emissions, largely through gas flaring practices.

The content serves as a series of awareness materials designed to educate the public on the dangers of gas flaring and the urgent need for climate action.
