Canada vs Norway: Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Processes
Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- Canada
- Norway
How they compare
Canada currently reports 0.1846 Mt CO2e against 0.0996 Mt CO2e in Norway, a difference of 0.085 Mt CO2e.
That makes Canada's figure about 1.9 times Norway's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Canada ahead.
Canada ranks 15th and Norway ranks 18th of 94 countries.
Canada 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).
