Reply to comment by BafangFan in Methane ‘Super-Emitters’ Mapped by NASA’s New Earth Space Mission by CurtisLeow
There's really no comparison. These leaks are pumping thousands of tons of methane directly into the atmosphere every day, and there are a lot of them around the world. No matter how many cow farts you count, it's a drop in the bucket compared to shit like this.

Agriculture releases around 150 million tons of methane a year into the environment, or half a million tons a day.
Of this, a hundred million tons comes from cow farms. https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rsta.2020.0451
