Brazil: Methane (CH4) emissions (total) excluding LULUCF (Mt CO2e)

621.19Mt CO2e · 2024+12.6% since 2014

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). Annual figures for Brazil from 1970 to 2024.
