IDA total vs Kuwait: Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Processes
Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- IDA total
- Kuwait
How they compare
IDA total currently reports 0.0275 Mt CO2e against 0.0232 Mt CO2e in Kuwait, a difference of 0.0043 Mt CO2e.
That makes IDA total's figure about 1.2 times Kuwait's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was IDA total ahead.
IDA total ranks 40th and Kuwait ranks 39th of 46 groups.
IDA total 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).
