Methane (CH4) emissions (total) excluding LULUCF over time
- Burkina Faso
- Qatar
How they compare
Qatar currently reports 23.15 Mt CO2e against 21 Mt CO2e in Burkina Faso, a difference of 2.15 Mt CO2e.
That makes Qatar's figure about 1.1 times Burkina Faso's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Qatar ahead.
Burkina Faso ranks 69th and Qatar ranks 66th of 203 countries.
Qatar has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Burkina Faso | Qatar | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 4.54 Mt CO2e | 9.91 Mt CO2e | 5.37 Mt CO2e | Qatar |
| 1980s | 6.3 Mt CO2e | 7.84 Mt CO2e | 1.53 Mt CO2e | Qatar |
| 1990s | 9.35 Mt CO2e | 13.8 Mt CO2e | 4.45 Mt CO2e | Qatar |
| 2000s | 13.5 Mt CO2e | 23.19 Mt CO2e | 9.7 Mt CO2e | Qatar |
| 2010s | 18.55 Mt CO2e | 22.4 Mt CO2e | 3.85 Mt CO2e | Qatar |

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the agriculture, energy, waste, and industrial sectors, excluding LULUCF. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
