No, the linked piece doesn't say "methane contributes 86 times as much as CO2."  The linked piece is ten years old.  It's the current piece we are responding to in this article that says that.  Which means the assessment that led to the war on Global Warming was based on assumptions that, according to current science, were about 9,000% wrong.

As I've mentioned, the only reason that CO2 has been demonized as the culprit was that it was the only way the EPA could justify spending money on the global warming agenda under the Clean Air and Water Act was to declare CO2 a "pollutant."  Congress has never authorized spending on global warming.
