How they compare

Sudan currently reports 0.4335 t CO2e/capita against 0.3834 t CO2e/capita in Kenya, a difference of 0.0501 t CO2e/capita.

That makes Sudan's figure about 1.1 times Kenya's.

The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Kenya ahead.

Kenya ranks 168th and Sudan ranks 165th of 203 countries.

Across the 6 decades both report, Kenya averaged higher in 3 and Sudan in 3.

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.
