Claiming or implying methane by-products will be discharged to atmosphere is the real slight of hand in this debate, it's a valuable resource that is easily collected and converted to many useful carbon based products, turning it into waste by making the production of it illegal is certainly the foolish way to go.
Even to the extreme of capture and sequestration. One of the great ironies in the debate is leftists arguing to stop mining of fossil fuels gases like methane, I suppose the premise is just leave it in the ground where it has been safely residing for millions of years. Then the very same people arguing sequestration, that pumps reserves of such gases back to the natural reservoirs where they came from, is flawed and cannot work. Yep, another let's not talk about the war moment for renewables.
Just a small example of no methane, no disposable PPE or single use (sterile) surgical kit, no catheters, no arterial clips, no sterile packaging, just a very small sample of modern life that is produced from or with the assistance of the methane that currently comes out of natural gas reserves.
Mining fossil gas is a process that can be mostly or completely replaced through the use of the methane by-products collected of gasification, farming and recycling / composting. Nobody is claiming they are to be vented to atmosphere, that accusation is just an absurdity.
