Iron and steel manufacturing: methane emissions 1990-2017 Statistic

This statistic shows the amount of methane (CH4) emissions attributable to the manufacture of basic iron and steel in the United Kingdom (UK) from 1990 to 2017, in thousand metric tons carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e). It shows that CH4 emissions have decreased over the years, going from 40,400 metric tons CO2e in 1990 to 14,900 metric tons CO2e in 2017.
