Step-by-step explanation:

• Methane being a vital greenhouse gas and produces 84 times more heat than carbon dioxide, its concentration varies across the seasons and can remain in the atmosphere for a period of 12 years.

• Methane has the ability to stay in the atmosphere without the oxygen for a longer duration.

• The gas can produce water vapor through the chemical reaction when it reaches the mesosphere and is most likely to produce clouds.

• The environmental benefits of this gas is that it can produce energy by mass and are more refined than oil and creates less pollution and pollutants.
