Calculating MMTCE

To arrive at MMTCE, multiply the weight of the gas times it's global 
warming potential, times 12/44.  (By weight, carbon is 12/44ths of carbon dioxide) 
The weight of gas is calculated in grams, and one teragram (Tg) 
equals a million metric tons.

MMTCE = (Tg of gas) x (GWP) x (12/44)
