Israel vs Switzerland: Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Processes
Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- Israel
- Switzerland
How they compare
Switzerland currently reports 0.0021 Mt CO2e against 0.0018 Mt CO2e in Israel, a difference of 0.0003 Mt CO2e.
That makes Switzerland's figure about 1.2 times Israel's.
The two have swapped places 5 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Israel ahead.
Israel ranks 67th and Switzerland ranks 65th of 94 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Israel averaged higher in 3 and Switzerland in 3.

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).
