Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy) over time
- Norway
- Paraguay
How they compare
Paraguay currently reports 0.0479 Mt CO2e against 0.0356 Mt CO2e in Norway, a difference of 0.0123 Mt CO2e.
That makes Paraguay's figure about 1.3 times Norway's.
The two have swapped places 6 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Paraguay ahead.
Norway ranks 48th and Paraguay ranks 45th of 193 countries.
Paraguay 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).
