How this figure is calculated
Emission Totals - Emissions (CO2eq) from CH4 (AR5) - Emissions on agricultural land divided by Population, total, matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Emission Totals - Emissions (CO2eq) from CH4 (AR5) - Emissions on agricultural land ÷ Population, total
Computed from
- Emission Totals - Emissions (CO2eq) from CH4 (AR5) - Emissions on FAO, FAOSTAT Climate Change, Emissions Totals, http://www.fao.org/faostat/en/#data/GT
- Population, total World Population Prospects, United Nations (UN)
Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
