Methane
Averaged over 20 years, methane traps around 72 times more heat than CO2. Over a 5-year period, methane is seen to be even more potent, trapping around 100 times more heat than CO2. At the same time, methane leaves the atmosphere within a decade, while CO2 will stay around warming the planet for hundreds, possibly thousands of years.
