摘要: Abstract The future global emission of CH 4 from the natural gas and coal industries has been predicted to year 2025 using a simple model which relates fuel use in country national population. Estimates have based on published loss rates both production distribution stages industry mining, United Nations population predictions. Results for suggest that total emissions this source will rise 34 Tg pa 1990 43–46 by 2025; an average increase 0.7–0.9% pa. Future mining activities are 42 2025, 0.6%
