Sub-Saharan Africa vs Ukraine: Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Processes
Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- Sub-Saharan Africa
- Ukraine
How they compare
Sub-Saharan Africa currently reports 0.2902 Mt CO2e against 0.047 Mt CO2e in Ukraine, a difference of 0.2432 Mt CO2e.
That makes Sub-Saharan Africa's figure about 6.2 times Ukraine's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Ukraine ahead.
Sub-Saharan Africa ranks 1st and Ukraine ranks 30th of 1 groups.
Across the 6 decades both report, Sub-Saharan Africa averaged higher in 3 and Ukraine 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).
