In Case You Missed It: Watch the 2026 State of the Science Summit on Reducing Methane from Animal Agriculture

Who this is For
At a Glance
Why it Matters

Reducing methane emissions from livestock is one of the best opportunities we have to slow warming. The State of the Science Summit on Reducing Methane from Animal Agriculture is one of the best opportunities to hear from the researchers, producers, policymakers, innovators, and NGOs working to advance solutions.

The 2026 conference—our fourth annual—was held in June at the University of California, Davis and brought together hundreds of researchers, producers, policymakers, funders, and industry partners to discuss the latest developments in livestock methane science, innovation, policy, markets, and more.

If you missed the conference, or want to revisit a session, videos from all 18 sessions are now available:

As part of our broader program to accelerate solutions for livestock enteric methane mitigation, Spark was proud to co-organize the conference with the UC Davis CLEAR Center, the UC Davis College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, and the California Department of Food and Agriculture, with support from the Global Methane Hub and the Platform for Agriculture and Climate Transformation.
