Methane (CH4) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Cyprus
- Sri Lanka
How they compare
Sri Lanka currently reports 0.0046 Mt CO2e against 0.0031 Mt CO2e in Cyprus, a difference of 0.0015 Mt CO2e.
That makes Sri Lanka's figure about 1.5 times Cyprus's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Sri Lanka ahead.
Cyprus ranks 165th and Sri Lanka ranks 162nd of 192 countries.
Sri Lanka 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 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).
