Brazil vs Russian Federation: Methane (CH4) emissions from Transport (Energy)
Methane (CH4) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- Brazil
- Russian Federation
How they compare
Russian Federation currently reports 1 Mt CO2e against 0.7906 Mt CO2e in Brazil, a difference of 0.2094 Mt CO2e.
That makes Russian Federation's figure about 1.3 times Brazil's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Russian Federation ahead.
Brazil ranks 7th and Russian Federation ranks 5th of 194 countries.
Russian Federation 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 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).
