...The storage of manure in large pits, in particular, was cited as a key driver in the higher-than-expected livestock methane emission levels, as this process causes bacteria to create twice as much methane than usual. The researchers estimated a 36.7 percent increase in global methane emissions, as compared to the IPCC’s 11-year-old estimate, as a result of the above process. The levels of methane produced when cattle and other animals pass gas was also higher, but not by that much, as levels were estimated to be 8.4 percent greater than the figures on record.
