The moment for coordinated action on enteric methane is before us.

Mission

Global Enteric Methane Impact Alliance (GEMIA) is a public-good initiative focused on accelerating real-world reductions in enteric methane from livestock. 

GEMIA supports shared infrastructure for coordination, evidence alignment, and credible adoption pathways that enable methane mitigation and productivity improvements while maintaining animal health and food safety. By aligning stakeholders around common priorities and reducing fragmentation, GEMIA advances climate and environmental outcomes that benefit society broadly.

Why It Matters

Enteric methane from livestock is one of the largest sources of human-driven methane emissions globally and contributes disproportionately to near-term warming. By enabling coordinated, public-good focused action, GEMIA supports greenhouse gas reductions, environmental protection, and productivity improvements that benefit society broadly.

Objectives

GEMIA’s work focuses on enabling coordination, learning, and alignment across the enteric methane mitigation landscape in service of public-interest climate and environmental outcomes.

  • Support evidence synthesis and alignment around measurement, reporting, and verification approaches

  • Develop neutral, science-forward educational and communication materials

  • Convene stakeholders through facilitated collaborative forums to align priorities and timelines

  • Coordinate learning and shared signals across pre-competitive mitigation efforts

  • Maintain governance and operational structures that ensure transparency and accountability

Participants and Network

GEMIA engages a diverse set of organizations and contributors — solution developers, producers, NGOs, independent technical experts, and others — to support shared public-good goals in enteric methane mitigation.

Engage with GEMIA

GEMIA welcomes interest from organizations and individuals aligned with public-interest efforts to reduce enteric methane.
