About Event

​Seeking expressions of interest from climate and environment policymakers as well as senior (c-suite, director-level) individuals from methane and science bodies, and NGOs for this ~20-person roundtable in the UNFCCC Blue Zone. Early RSVP strongly recommended.


​Forming part of the COP31 President's Action Agenda on Climate-Resilient Cities, this is a senior roundtable on Methane Reductions in Circular Waste Infrastructure.

​Chaired by Fabio Dinale, Executive VP of Business Development at Kanadevia Inova, with Fabio Poretti, Head of Science | Energy&Climate at CEWEP.

​Food and other organic waste in landfill are a major source of methane, a powerful short-term warming gas. Treating it through biogas and waste-to-energy turns the problem into power for cities. This session looks at the quickest practical ways to cut methane from waste and, critically, what it will take to get there — and the role of these technologies in the wider climate ecosystem.

​Featuring:

  • ​CEO, Global Methane Hub

  • ​CEO, WRAP

  • ​Executive Director, CEUS Chile

  • ​Superintendent for Sustainable Development and Solid Waste, Brasil State Secretariat for Environment and Sustainable Development

  • ​CEO, GHGSat

  • ​Executive Chairman, Blended Finance Group

  • ​Country President Germany, KVI
