Cuba vs Laos: Methane (CH4) emissions from Transport (Energy)
Methane (CH4) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- Cuba
- Laos
How they compare
Laos currently reports 0.0081 Mt CO2e against 0.0062 Mt CO2e in Cuba, a difference of 0.0019 Mt CO2e.
That makes Laos's figure about 1.3 times Cuba's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Cuba ahead.
Cuba ranks 134th and Laos ranks 131st of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Cuba averaged higher in 4 and Laos in 2.

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).
