Biden Moves to Dial Down America’s Soaring Methane Emissions . Experts say the new administration can jumpstart climate protections by taking on rising methane emissions, but it won’t be easy or quick.
The reality is that fracking for gas and oil is the driver of rising methane emissions (plus issues like poorly designed and leaking natural gas storage systems, see California). Biden is refusing to ban fracking, or to reinstate the law banning crude oil exports from the USA (signed in 1970, repealed in 2015, by an Obama - Republican coalition).
Hence the current prediction is for USA fossil fuel-sourced carbon emissions to continue to climb throughout Biden's term, just as they did over Obama's and Trump's tenure.
The reason being, Wall Street likes those fossil fuel profits and they control both parties in government.
