Probably not. Similar to the way that it takes a minute to warm up after you put on a blanket, there's a multiyear lag on the order of 10-20 years between emissions and warming impact.

Methane only stays in the air for about 12 years, but it absorbs more energy than carbon emissions, so it's impact would be seen quicker, wouldn't it?

Good point, consider me owned by facts and logic.
