Methane (CH4) emissions (total) excluding LULUCF over time
- Canada
- Mexico
How they compare
Mexico currently reports 150.68 Mt CO2e against 133.08 Mt CO2e in Canada, a difference of 17.6 Mt CO2e.
That makes Mexico's figure about 1.1 times Canada's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Canada ahead.
Canada ranks 14th and Mexico ranks 11th of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Canada averaged higher in 1 and Mexico in 5.

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).
