Germany vs Libya: Methane (CH4) emissions from Transport (Energy)
Methane (CH4) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- Germany
- Libya
How they compare
Libya currently reports 0.2146 Mt CO2e against 0.1987 Mt CO2e in Germany, a difference of 0.0159 Mt CO2e.
That makes Libya's figure about 1.1 times Germany's.
The two have swapped places 7 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Germany ahead.
Germany ranks 25th and Libya ranks 24th of 194 countries.
Germany has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Germany | Libya | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 1.16 Mt CO2e | 0.042 Mt CO2e | 1.12 Mt CO2e | Germany |
| 1980s | 1.42 Mt CO2e | 0.0907 Mt CO2e | 1.33 Mt CO2e | Germany |
| 1990s | 1.24 Mt CO2e | 0.1868 Mt CO2e | 1.05 Mt CO2e | Germany |
| 2000s | 0.4855 Mt CO2e | 0.3837 Mt CO2e | 0.1019 Mt CO2e | Germany |
| 2010s | 0.2968 Mt CO2e | 0.2945 Mt CO2e | 0.0023 Mt CO2e | Germany |
| 2020s | 0.2124 Mt CO2e | 0.1941 Mt CO2e | 0.0183 Mt CO2e | Germany |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

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).
