Methane (CH4) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- Bangladesh
- Iraq
How they compare
Bangladesh currently reports 0.1507 Mt CO2e against 0.1389 Mt CO2e in Iraq, a difference of 0.0118 Mt CO2e.
That makes Bangladesh's figure about 1.1 times Iraq's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Iraq ahead.
Bangladesh ranks 34th and Iraq ranks 36th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Bangladesh averaged higher in 2 and Iraq in 4.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the transportation sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.3.a Civil Aviation, 1.A.3.b_noRES Road Transportation no resuspension, 1.A.3.c Railways, 1.A.3.d Water-borne Navigation, 1.A.3.e Other Transportation. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
