#WasteMAP advances the fight against waste methane emissions, leveraging data to inform decision-making and equipping stakeholders with resources to act now. Through global insights and effective tools, we're addressing the #methane challenge. Explore how: bit.ly/4aIXTZb

Methane emissions from organic waste are preventable & must be reduced by at least 30-35% to limit warming to 1.5°C.

Underutilised methods to mitigate organic waste methane include: Diverting organic waste to Black Soldier Fly facilities & installing biocovers on open landfills.

How can we monitor, quantify, and reduce #methane pollution from the waste sector?
