In 2023, Mexico's waste-related methane (CH4) emissions were equivalent to roughly 62 million metric tons of carbon dioxide (MtCO₂e). Since 1990, CH4 emissions from solid waste disposal and wastewater treatment in Mexico have almost doubled. Mexico is among the biggest waste-related CH4 emitters worldwide.
