Heavily indebted poor countries (HIPC) vs Least developed countries: Methane (CH4) emissions from Transport (Energy)
Methane (CH4) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- Heavily indebted poor countries (HIPC)
- Least developed countries
How they compare
Least developed countries currently reports 0.8523 Mt CO2e against 0.7789 Mt CO2e in Heavily indebted poor countries (HIPC), a difference of 0.0734 Mt CO2e.
That makes Least developed countries's figure about 1.1 times Heavily indebted poor countries (HIPC)'s.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Heavily indebted poor countries (HIPC) ahead.
Heavily indebted poor countries (HIPC) ranks 38th and Least developed countries ranks 37th of 45 groups.
Across the 6 decades both report, Heavily indebted poor countries (HIPC) averaged higher in 2 and Least developed countries in 4.

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).
