Real-world steps to reduce methane emission.

Why Methane is a Problem that Needs Solving

For years, methane has been overlooked in the conversation regarding global climate change. But the truth is, methane is 25x more potent than carbon, and atmospheric concentration of methane is increasing faster now than at any time since the 1980s and is the second leading contributor to climate change. A leading cause of methane emissions is millions of uncapped, orphaned gas and oil wells littered across the United States, a problem we now know how to solve. The time to act is now, and PermCap is here to help.

80x

Methane has more than 80 times the warming power of carbon dioxide over the first 20 years after it reaches the atmosphere.

25%

At least 25% of today's global warming is driven by methane from human actions.

13M

It is estimated the U.S. oil and gas industry emitted at least 13 million metric tons of methane last year.

So what exactly is a Carbon Credit?

Think of carbon credits as tiny heroes that fight climate change. Each credit represents one metric ton of carbon dioxide equivalent removed from the atmosphere (MTCO₂(e)_. Carbon credits are often traded between companies to encourage cleaner practices and a healthier planet.

How are Carbon Credits Created?

In the voluntary carbon market, project developers (Like PermCap) act like environmental alchemists, brewing up "pollution-erasing magic" in the form of carbon credits. They do this by tackling tough emissions problems head-on through projects like plugging orphaned oil wells, protecting natural habitats, building renewable energy plants, or capturing factory gases at the source. Every ton of CO₂ these projects remove or avoid earns them one carbon credit, like a gold star for climate action. These credits can then be transferred and/or sold in the aftermarket, where companies looking to offset their own emissions can buy them. It's a win-win: a cleaner, more sustainable planet and a chance for companies to invest in impactful projects that serve their clean climate goals along with the sustainable development goals we all aspire to. So, next time you see a "carbon neutral" product or company, remember, it might be powered by the invisible magic of a project developer like PermCap and their dedication to a cleaner world.

Sustainable Development Goals

Imagine a future where clean air is abundant, vibrant ecosystems flourish, and communities are restored – a future made possible by projects like those undertaken by PermCap. Our success isn't just about methane removal; it's about high-impact improvements in the lives of people, animals, and the environment we share.

These projects haven't just curbed harmful methane emissions; they've ignited a ripple effect of positive change. Data-driven analysis, meticulously gathered and interwoven with scientific expertise, proves their direct contribution to no less than six of the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals. That's not just progress – it's a leap towards a healthier, more sustainable world for all.
