Methane (CH4) emissions from Building (Energy) over time
- Belarus
- Switzerland
How they compare
Switzerland currently reports 0.2549 Mt CO2e against 0.2254 Mt CO2e in Belarus, a difference of 0.0295 Mt CO2e.
That makes Switzerland's figure about 1.1 times Belarus's.
The two have swapped places 5 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Belarus ahead.
Belarus ranks 100th and Switzerland ranks 97th of 197 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Belarus averaged higher in 5 and Switzerland in 1.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the building sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.4 Residential and other sectors, 1.A.5 Non-Specified. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
