Methane (CH4) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Latvia
- Suriname
How they compare
Latvia currently reports 0.1936 Mt CO2e against 0.1816 Mt CO2e in Suriname, a difference of 0.012 Mt CO2e.
That makes Latvia's figure about 1.1 times Suriname's.
The two have swapped places 7 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Suriname ahead.
Latvia ranks 135th and Suriname ranks 136th of 192 countries.
Suriname 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).
