New Zealand vs Thailand: Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Processes
Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- New Zealand
- Thailand
How they compare
New Zealand currently reports 0.0682 Mt CO2e against 0.0646 Mt CO2e in Thailand, a difference of 0.0036 Mt CO2e.
That makes New Zealand's figure about 1.1 times Thailand's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was New Zealand ahead.
New Zealand ranks 23rd and Thailand ranks 25th of 94 countries.
New Zealand 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).
