671292 Per-capita methane emissions in CO2 equivalents tonnes Per-capita methane emissions in CO2 equivalents. Methane emissions per person are calculated by Our World in Data based on emissions data from Jones et al. (2023) and population data from HYDE and the UN World Population Prospects. 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 13:55:04 2023-11-22 20:09:13     1850-2021 5994 28574 t
