Denmark vs Niger: Methane (CH4) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy)
Methane (CH4) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Denmark
- Niger
How they compare
Denmark currently reports 0.5045 Mt CO2e against 0.4738 Mt CO2e in Niger, a difference of 0.0307 Mt CO2e.
That makes Denmark's figure about 1.1 times Niger's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Denmark ahead.
Denmark ranks 119th and Niger ranks 121st of 192 countries.
Denmark 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).
