- Malaysia
- Small states
How they compare
Malaysia currently reports 9.39 Mt CO2e against 6.18 Mt CO2e in Small states, a difference of 3.21 Mt CO2e.
That makes Malaysia's figure about 1.5 times Small states's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Small states ahead.
Malaysia ranks 44th and Small states ranks 42nd of 192 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Malaysia averaged higher in 5 and Small states in 1.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Malaysia | Small states | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 2.66 Mt CO2e | 2.93 Mt CO2e | 0.2659 Mt CO2e | Small states |
| 1980s | 6.75 Mt CO2e | 3.15 Mt CO2e | 3.6 Mt CO2e | Malaysia |
| 1990s | 10.47 Mt CO2e | 3.17 Mt CO2e | 7.3 Mt CO2e | Malaysia |
| 2000s | 13.08 Mt CO2e | 5.38 Mt CO2e | 7.7 Mt CO2e | Malaysia |
| 2010s | 11.3 Mt CO2e | 5.23 Mt CO2e | 6.07 Mt CO2e | Malaysia |
| 2020s | 9.67 Mt CO2e | 5.59 Mt CO2e | 4.09 Mt CO2e | Malaysia |
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 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).
