AI overview
Methane is a simple chemical compound made of one carbon atom bonded to four hydrogen atoms, and it's the main ingredient in natural gas, making it a valuable fuel source. In Earth's atmosphere, methane traps heat by absorbing infrared radiation, which makes it a greenhouse gas that contributes to climate change, though it's difficult to capture and store because it's naturally a gas.
