Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy) over time
- Canada
- Germany
How they compare
Canada currently reports 0.2499 Mt CO2e against 0.2198 Mt CO2e in Germany, a difference of 0.0301 Mt CO2e.
That makes Canada's figure about 1.1 times Germany's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Germany ahead.
Canada ranks 11th and Germany ranks 12th of 193 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Canada averaged higher in 5 and Germany in 1.

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).
