Also a layman but my understanding is the issue is 'percent of emissions' part of the fact. The emissions are methane, which are 'worse' than CO2 - so some statistics normalize for this and result in a high % of emissions. I think it's semantics and bad-faith actors use the wording that helps them the most, which muddies the waters.

>muddies the waters.

Yeah, I'm not a climate change skeptic but I've basically become skeptical of any claim I read about it now.

One of these days I'll actually read the IPCC report so I can hopefully sift through the claims myself.
