Benin vs Ethiopia: Methane (CH4) emissions from Transport (Energy)
Methane (CH4) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- Benin
- Ethiopia
How they compare
Ethiopia currently reports 0.0409 Mt CO2e against 0.0384 Mt CO2e in Benin, a difference of 0.0025 Mt CO2e.
That makes Ethiopia's figure about 1.1 times Benin's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Ethiopia ahead.
Benin ranks 65th and Ethiopia ranks 64th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Benin averaged higher in 3 and Ethiopia in 3.

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).
