Forget thinking about carbon emission only. If we want to control global warming, cutting methane could do wonder to cool the planet.

During the month of December 2009 around 190 countries met at Copenhagen to discuss one of the most important issues of Global Warming. Here carbon dioxide emission was considered as the main culprit leading climate change. But reversing global temperature increases by reducing carbon emissions will take many decades, if not centuries. Even if the largest cuts in CO2 contemplated in Copenhagen are implemented, it simply will not reverse the melting of ice already occurring in the most sensitive areas, including the rapid disappearance of glaciers in Tibet, the Arctic and Latin America.

World has rightly expressed the concern over global warming resulting due to temp rise as after effect of GHG emissions. However, no general consensus could reach at Copenhagen, but US and Basic nations (India, China, Brazil & South Africa) have agreed to yet another kind of arrangement which could provide a new direction and these nations could emerge as aspiring future leader to protect environment along with US. Controlling GHG emissions, if implemented seriously, would definitely bear some fruits with consistent efforts in the proper direction and dimension.
