Hungary vs Iceland: Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Processes
Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- Hungary
- Iceland
How they compare
Hungary currently reports 0.0064 Mt CO2e against 0.0037 Mt CO2e in Iceland, a difference of 0.0027 Mt CO2e.
That makes Hungary's figure about 1.7 times Iceland's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Iceland ahead.
Hungary ranks 54th and Iceland ranks 57th of 94 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Hungary averaged higher in 5 and Iceland in 1.

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).
