Core Insights - The IEA's report highlights that global methane emissions in the energy sector have not peaked yet, with significant challenges in enforcement and high emissions from abandoned mines [1][2] - China's methane emissions intensity from oil and gas is below the global average, while coal methane emissions intensity is on par with global levels, indicating notable achievements in methane control [1][2] Global Methane Emissions - Methane emissions from the fossil fuel sector contribute approximately one-third of human-induced methane emissions, with annual emissions exceeding 120 million tons [2] - The IEA estimates that reported methane emissions from the energy sector are about 80% higher than the data submitted by countries to the UNFCCC, primarily due to a lack of actual measurement data [2] Methane Control Initiatives - As of the end of 2024, 159 countries, including the EU, have joined the Global Methane Pledge, covering 50% of global methane emissions from human activities [2] - Despite the commitments, many countries have not implemented substantial control measures, with only half having detailed regulatory frameworks [2] Abandoned Mine Emissions - Methane emissions from abandoned mines are underestimated, accounting for about 5% of global methane emissions from energy activities, with around 8 million abandoned oil and gas wells globally [3] - China accounts for approximately 60% of global methane emissions from abandoned coal mines, while the U.S. contributes about 40% from abandoned oil and gas wells [3] Impact on China's Energy Consumption - The EU is seeking to establish regulations for methane emissions from imported energy, which could reshape the energy trade system [4] - By 2030, fossil fuel importers must demonstrate compliance with EU-set methane intensity limits, impacting China's energy import costs and strategies [4] China's Methane Emissions from Imports - China's implicit methane emissions from imported energy are significant, with approximately 10 million tons attributed to imports, surpassing levels from the EU, Japan, and South Korea [5] - The majority of these emissions stem from oil and gas imports from Russia and the Middle East [5] Recommendations for Methane Control in China - A systematic assessment of international methane control regulations' impact on China's energy trade is recommended, focusing on tracking the implementation of methane emission standards by major trading partners [6] - Establishing a methane emissions accounting system for imported energy is suggested, including a database covering extraction, processing, and transportation stages [6] - Initiating a national survey on methane emissions from abandoned mines is advised, with a focus on monitoring and remediation responsibilities [6]

如果俄罗斯被迫答应，那美国可以从中得到巨大的好处，不仅能在俄欧天然气贸易中分到一杯羹，更重要的是，能了解俄罗斯能源贸易的一手信息，有利于 白宫制定针对俄能源贸易的政策。 特朗普的朋友 很多朋友应该还记得，俄乌冲突刚爆发那年，"北溪管道"被炸毁之后，俄罗斯天然是完全没法往欧洲卖的，美国能源商趁此机会赚了不少钱。当时有分析认 为，美国会一举拿下欧洲能源市场，把俄罗斯踢出去，但现在回头看，存在很多现实的麻烦。 在一条本来畅通无阻的路上制造混乱，再设卡收钱，在任何时代都是强盗行为。现在美国就准备这么干。据报道，作为斡旋俄乌冲突的一部分，美方团队已 经向俄罗斯提出要求，由美国资本介入，来"帮"俄罗斯恢复对欧洲的天然气贸易。 美国的"善意" 美方给出的理由是，你看啊，你们俄罗斯和欧洲的关系，已经势不两立了，再想往欧洲卖天然气也不现实，如果由我们美国出面帮着卖，是不是就能缓解一 下，欧洲内部关于重新进口俄气的政治阻力呢？ 具体的操作方法，包括由美国资本入股俄罗斯连通欧洲的天然气管道，甚至入股俄罗斯的天然气公司。到时候美国出面跟欧洲谈，还能进一步巩固俄乌和 平，截至目前，俄罗斯方面还没有给出明确回复，应该是在考虑中。 比如说 ...
