Afghanistan vs Denmark: Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy)
Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy) over time
- Afghanistan
- Denmark
How they compare
Afghanistan currently reports 0.0094 Mt CO2e against 0.0088 Mt CO2e in Denmark, a difference of 0.0006 Mt CO2e.
That makes Afghanistan's figure about 1.1 times Denmark's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Denmark ahead.
Afghanistan ranks 84th and Denmark ranks 87th of 193 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 industrial combustion (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.2 Manufacturing Industries and Construction. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
