Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions excluding LULUCF per capita over time
- Finland
- New Zealand
How they compare
New Zealand currently reports 6.01 t CO2e/capita against 5.54 t CO2e/capita in Finland, a difference of 0.47 t CO2e/capita.
That makes New Zealand's figure about 1.1 times Finland's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Finland ahead.
Finland ranks 45th and New Zealand ranks 42nd of 203 countries.
Finland has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.

About this data
Total annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the agriculture, energy, waste, and industrial sectors, excluding LULUCF, standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values divided by the economy's population. This measure excludes GHG fluxes caused by Land Use, Land-Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF), as these fluxes have larger uncertainties.
