- Brazil
- Venezuela
How they compare
Brazil currently reports 0.1445 Mt CO2e against 0.1133 Mt CO2e in Venezuela, a difference of 0.0312 Mt CO2e.
That makes Brazil's figure about 1.3 times Venezuela's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, Brazil has been ahead every year.
Brazil ranks 16th and Venezuela ranks 17th of 94 countries.
Brazil 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 processes including IPCC 2006 codes 2.A.1 Cement production, 2.A.2 Lime production, 2.A.3 Glass Production, 2.A.4 Other Process Uses of Carbonates, 2.B Chemical Industry, 2.C Metal Industry, 2.D Non-Energy Products from Fuels and Solvent Use, 2.E Electronics Industry, 2.F Product Uses as Substitutes for Ozone Depleting Substances, 2.G Other Product Manufacture and Use and 5.A Indirect N2O emissions from the atmospheric deposition of nitrogen in NOx and NH3. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
