- Bangladesh
- France
How they compare
France currently reports 18.44 Mt CO2e against 17.03 Mt CO2e in Bangladesh, a difference of 1.41 Mt CO2e.
That makes France's figure about 1.1 times Bangladesh's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, France has been ahead every year.
Bangladesh ranks 23rd and France ranks 20th of 203 countries.
France 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 waste sector. This includes emissions from solid waste (IPCC 2006 codes 4.A Solid Waste Disposal, 4.B Biological Treatment of Solid Waste, 4.C Incineration and Open Burning of Waste) and wastewater treatment (IPCC 2006 code 4.D Wastewater Treatment and Discharge). The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
