Legend

There are 3 fields used on this chart (including filters):
  • country: Name of country.
  • methane emissions: 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). Methane emissions are those stemming from human activities such as agriculture and from industrial methane production. This field is expressed in Mt of CO2 equivalent.
  • urban population living in areas where elevation is below 5 meters : Urban population below 5m is the percentage of the total population, living in areas where the elevation is 5 meters or less. This field is expressed in % of total population.
