Legend

There are 3 fields used on this chart (including filters):
  • country: Name of country.
  • renewable energy consumption: Renewable energy consumption is the share of renewables energy in total final energy consumption. This field is expressed in % of total final energy consumption.
  • 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.
