GWP: Gas → CO₂e Converters
Convert a mass of any greenhouse gas to its CO₂-equivalent using IPCC global warming potentials. Each converter carries the assessment basis (AR4 / AR5 / AR6) and 100-year horizon, and reads its GWP live from MasterBrain.

The potentials behind these converters
IPCC AR6, 100-year horizon — kg CO₂e per kg of gas
| Gas | GWP₁₀₀ | Where it comes from | Relative |
|---|---|---|---|
| Carbon dioxide (CO₂) | 1 | the reference gas | |
| Methane, biogenic | 27 | livestock, landfill | |
| Methane, fossil | 29.8 | gas leaks, coal mines | |
| Nitrous oxide (N₂O) | 273 | fertiliser, combustion | |
| HFC-134a | 1,530 | vehicle air-conditioning | |
| R-410A | 2,256 | split-system refrigerant | |
| HFC-125 | 3,740 | blend component | |
| Nitrogen trifluoride (NF₃) | 17,400 | semiconductor etch | |
| Sulphur hexafluoride (SF₆) | 24,300 | switchgear |
Bars are log-scaled: CO₂ is 1 and NF₃ is over seventeen thousand, so a linear bar would render everything below SF₆ as an invisible sliver. Read live from MasterBrain 2026.284.
