Ghana vs Other small states: Methane (CH4) emissions from Transport (Energy)
Methane (CH4) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- Ghana
- Other small states
How they compare
Ghana currently reports 0.0685 Mt CO2e against 0.0575 Mt CO2e in Other small states, a difference of 0.011 Mt CO2e.
That makes Ghana's figure about 1.2 times Other small states's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Other small states ahead.
Ghana ranks 46th and Other small states ranks 43rd of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Ghana averaged higher in 1 and Other small states in 5.

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).
