Lithuania vs Nigeria: Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Processes
Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- Lithuania
- Nigeria
How they compare
Nigeria currently reports 0.0031 Mt CO2e against 0.0023 Mt CO2e in Lithuania, a difference of 0.0008 Mt CO2e.
That makes Nigeria's figure about 1.3 times Lithuania's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Lithuania ahead.
Lithuania ranks 62nd and Nigeria ranks 60th of 94 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Lithuania averaged higher in 5 and Nigeria 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).
