Wikipedia Wrote:Reaction with the hydroxyl radical- The major removal mechanism of methane from the atmosphere involves radical chemistry; it reacts with the hydroxyl radical (·OH) in the troposphere or stratosphere to create the CH·3 radical and water vapor. In addition to being the largest known sink for atmospheric methane, this reaction is one of the most important sources of water vapor in the upper atmosphere.
Hmm. There's a limited capacity there but it's still nice to know so that I may ease my conscious somewhat. I fart a great deal, I'm afraid.

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
