Cameroon vs Sudan: Methane (CH4) emissions from Building (Energy)
Methane (CH4) emissions from Building (Energy) over time
- Cameroon
- Sudan
How they compare
Sudan currently reports 2.36 Mt CO2e against 2.23 Mt CO2e in Cameroon, a difference of 0.13 Mt CO2e.
That makes Sudan's figure about 1.1 times Cameroon's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Cameroon ahead.
Cameroon ranks 21st and Sudan ranks 19th of 197 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Cameroon averaged higher in 3 and Sudan in 3.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Cameroon | Sudan | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 0.8553 Mt CO2e | 0.7929 Mt CO2e | 0.0624 Mt CO2e | Cameroon |
| 1980s | 1.1 Mt CO2e | 1.02 Mt CO2e | 0.0864 Mt CO2e | Cameroon |
| 1990s | 1.44 Mt CO2e | 1.3 Mt CO2e | 0.1381 Mt CO2e | Cameroon |
| 2000s | 1.69 Mt CO2e | 1.74 Mt CO2e | 0.0451 Mt CO2e | Sudan |
| 2010s | 1.78 Mt CO2e | 2.02 Mt CO2e | 0.2423 Mt CO2e | Sudan |
| 2020s | 2.19 Mt CO2e | 2.33 Mt CO2e | 0.1362 Mt CO2e | Sudan |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

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).
