Analysis
Tunisia recorded 0.0491 Mt CO2e for methane (ch4) emissions from transport (energy) in 2024.
That represents a change of up 4.9% on the previous year and down 24.5% over ten years.
Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from transport (energy) in Tunisia peaked at 0.089 Mt CO2e in 2005 and was at its lowest, 0.0108 Mt CO2e, in 1971.
Tunisia ranks 59th of 194 countries on this measure, in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the transportation sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.3.a Civil Aviation, 1.A.3.b_noRES Road Transportation no resuspension, 1.A.3.c Railways, 1.A.3.d Water-borne Navigation, 1.A.3.e Other Transportation. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
