That would of course include fossil gas, which consists of 85 to 90 percent methane, a significantly more potent heat-trapping gas than carbon dioxide. A 2022 study found that gas stoves leak methane, and more than three-quarters of the emissions occurred when the stoves were off.

global warming pollution, second only to the transportation sector. The rule, which also applies to new gas plants, would avoid as much as 617 million metric tons of carbon dioxide through 2042, the EPA calculated , the equivalent of the annual emissions of 137 million passenger vehicles—about half of the cars in the country.
