Jordan vs Other small states: Methane (CH4) emissions from Waste
Methane (CH4) emissions from Waste over time
- Jordan
- Other small states
How they compare
Jordan currently reports 5.26 Mt CO2e against 3.83 Mt CO2e in Other small states, a difference of 1.43 Mt CO2e.
That makes Jordan's figure about 1.4 times Other small states's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Other small states ahead.
Jordan ranks 49th and Other small states ranks 46th of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Jordan 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 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).
