Greenland vs Seychelles: Methane (CH4) emissions (total) excluding LULUCF
Methane (CH4) emissions (total) excluding LULUCF over time
- Greenland
- Seychelles
How they compare
Seychelles currently reports 0.0743 Mt CO2e against 0.0577 Mt CO2e in Greenland, a difference of 0.0166 Mt CO2e.
That makes Seychelles's figure about 1.3 times Greenland's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Greenland ahead.
Greenland ranks 180th and Seychelles ranks 177th of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Greenland averaged higher in 4 and Seychelles in 2.

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).
