Methane (CH4) emissions from Building (Energy) over time
- Cameroon
- Somalia
How they compare
Cameroon currently reports 2.23 Mt CO2e against 2.08 Mt CO2e in Somalia, a difference of 0.15 Mt CO2e.
That makes Cameroon's figure about 1.1 times Somalia's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Cameroon ahead.
Cameroon ranks 21st and Somalia ranks 24th of 197 countries.
Cameroon has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.

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).
