Scientists say methane emissions need to be reduced fast to slow Earth's rapid warming.
The US and EU are expected to announce a pledge to cut methane emissions by nearly a third by 2030, based on 2020 levels, according to a Washington Post report which cited an EU official.
The announcement would come on the same day that President Joe Biden and other world leaders hold a virtual, closed-door meeting on climate, ahead of a pivotal UN climate conference in Glasgow in November.
