Hawk, you aren't doing the math, and as such, your conclusions are erroneous.

CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere are around 384 parts per million, whereas Methane concentrations are around 1,800 parts per BILLION.

So if methane is 21 times as bad as CO2, as you claim, then it still is insignificant in comparison to CO2 due the fact that CO2 concentrations are an order of magnitude higher than methane in the atmosphere.
