According to U.S. EPA, Inventory of U.S. Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sinks: 1990-2004,
1 therm of natural gas burnt produces 11.7 lbs. of carbon dioxide emissions.
Therefore, the Carbon Coefficient for natural gas is:
117 pounds of CO2 per million BTU, or 0.12 pounds per cubic foot of gas.
This is the total emissions of carbon (from CO2 and CH4), expressed in tons, for a country in one year.
8 metric tons is 8.818 US tons.
5 metric tons is 5.51 tons.
4,500 pounds = 2.25 tons
40 billion tons are emitted by human beings world wide. The US has roughly 5% of the world's total population. But we are responsible for a larger percent than any other country except China, and our emissions exceed those of China on a per capita bases. In all, about 18 metric tons per person.
From several sources it was calculated that the world annual emissions of the big 4 GHGs were as follows. The data does not account for water vapour or natural emissions. * CO2 30 billion tons * CH4 7 billion tons * Nitrous Oxide 3 billion * Fluorocarbons 3 billion
Metric tons
Mexico releases 436.15 million metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually (12th place, 2009). Those emissions represent 1.6% of the world's total and compared to China's or America's emissions (6,103.49 and 5,752.29 million metric tons, respectively), they represent 7.14% and 7.58% of such emissions.
This is the total emissions of carbon (from CO2 and CH4), expressed in tons, for a country in one year.
The answer is yes. The EIA (Energy Information Administratoin, part of the united states government) use metric tons for measuring CO2 equivalent, therefore it should be (or is) the standard.
This is the total emissions of carbon (from CO2 and CH4), expressed in tons, for a country in one year.
Mexico has emissions of CO2 equivalent to 436,150,000 metric tons a year, or 1.6% of the world's total.
