What is methane?

Methane (CH4) is a colorless, odorless, and highly flammable gas. It is composed of carbon and hydrogen. It is the main component found in natural gas, which fuels industrial plants, powers homes, and runs air conditioners, among other applications.  

According to the US Environmental Protection Agency, it is also a potent greenhouse gas, meaning it affects climate change by contributing to increased warming. Methane enters the atmosphere via human-related activities and natural sources.
