亚洲的发展中国家占世界动物种群的大部分。这些国家每年产生的动物粪便是甲烷和其他温室气体的主要来源。我们估计亚洲23个国家的动物粪便排放了17，730 Gg的CH 4、1，290，000 Gg的CO2和179 Gg的N2 O。利用可回收动物粪便产生的沼气替代煤油做饭，将使CH4、CO2和N2O的温室气体净排放量分别减少53.1%、19.5%和61.1%。(C)1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
Developing countries of Asia account for most of the world's animal population. The animal wastes produced annually in these countries constitute a major source of methane and other greenhouse gases (GHG). For 23 countries of Asia, we estimate that 17,730 Gg of CH4, 1,290,000 Gg of CO2 and 179 Gg of N2O are emitted from animal wastes. Using the biogas that can be produced from recoverable animal wastes as a substitute for kerosene in cooking will reduce net GHG emissions by 53.1, 19.5 and 61.1% for CH4, CO2 and N2O, respectively.
