Cumulative methane (CH4) emissions in France since 1850 reached over 16 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (GtCO2e) in 2022. France's main source of methane emissions is the agricultural sector.
Cumulative methane (CH₄) emissions in France from 1850 to 2022
(in million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent)
Figures were calculated by Statista according to the values provided by the source.
Includes methane emissions from fossil fuels, industry and agricultural sources.
Methane emissions are measured in metrictons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO₂e), so are weighted for its 100-year global warming potential value.
