- India
- Russia
How they compare
India currently reports 1.01 Mt CO2e against 0.6907 Mt CO2e in Russia, a difference of 0.3193 Mt CO2e.
That makes India's figure about 1.5 times Russia's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Russia ahead.
India ranks 3rd and Russia ranks 4th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, India averaged higher in 2 and Russia in 4.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from electricity and heat generation (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.1.a. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
