according to this [1] the US consumes ~8E6 million cubic feet of methane a year
which is ~ 2.3E11 cubic meters
which is ~ 1.5E11 kg of methane
1% of that would be 1.5E9 kg
total fuel load of starship+super heavy nominally 4.5E6 kg
just the methane is about 30% of that, so 1.4E6 kg
so 1% of the total methane consumption of just the US is about a thousand flights a year. As other people have said, minimal.
