Maybe this will change once the insurance tables update their pricing to include the new risks?

Solution is a maybe an overstatement, but
- destroy the methane. That's energetically favorable, so it can be done more easily. Makes some CO2 but it's 50x less bad that way.
- get the carbon back out and stick it into the ground. We'll be on our way when the Mauna Loa CO2 curve bends and goes down for a year or two. That's energetically expensive, but we'll figure out a way (hopefully) to do it wherever we have solar overproduction.
Trees are nice, but it's nowhere near enough to do that.
So you propose a sort of metric of "energy utility"?
