China tightens rules on methane emissions from coal mines to fight climate change.
China has introduced stricter regulations to control methane emissions from coal mining, aiming to combat climate change.
Methane is a potent greenhouse gas with a stronger warming effect than CO2.
The new rules require coal mines emitting over 8% methane or more than 10 cubic meters per minute to capture or eliminate the gas, a reduction from the previous 30% threshold set in 2008.
New mines must comply by April 2024, while existing ones have until April 2027.
China, the world's top methane emitter, has not set specific reduction targets but aims to optimize energy use and improve mining safety.
