- Belgium
- Bolivia
How they compare
Belgium currently reports 2.68 Mt CO2e against 2.43 Mt CO2e in Bolivia, a difference of 0.25 Mt CO2e.
That makes Belgium's figure about 1.1 times Bolivia's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Bolivia ahead.
Belgium ranks 68th and Bolivia ranks 71st of 192 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Belgium averaged higher in 1 and Bolivia in 5.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from fugitive emissions (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.1.bc Petroleum Refining - Manufacture of Solid Fuels and Other Energy Industries, 1.B.1 Solid Fuels, 1.B.2 Oil and Natural Gas, 5.B. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
