- Myanmar
- Viet Nam
How they compare
Viet Nam currently reports 74.18 Mt CO2e against 63.91 Mt CO2e in Myanmar, a difference of 10.27 Mt CO2e.
That makes Viet Nam's figure about 1.2 times Myanmar's.
The two have swapped places 5 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Myanmar ahead.
Myanmar ranks 14th and Viet Nam ranks 11th of 201 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Myanmar averaged higher in 3 and Viet Nam in 3.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the agricultural sector. This includes emissions from livestock (IPCC 2006 codes 3.A.1 (enteric fermentation, 3.a.2 (manure management) and crops (IPCC 2006 codes 3.C.1 Emissions from biomass burning, 3.C.7 Rice cultivations). The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
