671278 | Annual methane emissions from fossil fuels and industry in CO2 equivalents | tonnes | Annual methane emissions from fossil fuels and industry in CO2 equivalents. Methane emissions are calculated by Our World in Data based on emissions data from Jones et al. (2023) and IPCC conversion factors. Jones et al. (2023) give methane emissions in standard metric tonnes per year. We have converted these emissions to carbon-dioxide equivalents over a 100-year timescale using a conversion factor of 29.8 for fossil sources, and 27.2 for agricultural and land use sources (as per the IPCC AR6 report). | 2023-05-03 13:54:56 | 2023-11-22 20:09:11 | 1850-2021 | 5994 | 28574 | t | { "unit": "tonnes", "shortUnit": "t" } |
