There are no other business cases at these often remote landfills. It is not profitable to capture the methane and ship it somewhere else. Not even when 'converting' it to hydrogen. There are no other customers at the location that would pay for the generated electricity. It would be vented.

And that's just landfills. Now think of the countless abandoned oil drill sites that are leaking methane. I don't see a Trump govt coming with regulations to force oil companies to capture this methane. Again: making it profitable is the only way to get things done at scale.
