VOICES FOR CHANGE

The energy and climate crises are driving a call for change. Across Europe, the voices in favour of stronger EU regulation of methane emissions are growing louder.

Hear directly from thought leaders as to why the EU must not let this unmissable opportunity to fulfill its responsibility and take leadership on methane action go to waste. 

The message is simple: cutting methane emissions in the oil and gas sector is the quickest, cheapest and most effective way to fight climate change and help secure Europe’s energy supply.
