Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- Japan
- Malaysia
How they compare
Japan currently reports 0.2676 Mt CO2e against 0.1924 Mt CO2e in Malaysia, a difference of 0.0752 Mt CO2e.
That makes Japan's figure about 1.4 times Malaysia's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, Japan has been ahead every year.
Japan ranks 11th and Malaysia ranks 14th of 94 countries.
Japan 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).
