- Germany
- Italy
How they compare
Germany currently reports 0.6217 Mt CO2e against 0.5359 Mt CO2e in Italy, a difference of 0.0858 Mt CO2e.
That makes Germany's figure about 1.2 times Italy's.
The two have swapped places 8 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Germany ahead.
Germany ranks 36th and Italy ranks 39th of 110 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Germany averaged higher in 4 and Italy in 2.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the agricultural sector. This includes emissions from livestock (IPCC 2006 codes 3.A.1 (enteric fermentation, 3.a.2 (manure management) and crops (IPCC 2006 codes 3.C.1 Emissions from biomass burning, 3.C.2 Liming, 3.C.3 Urea application, 3.C.4 Direct N2O Emissions from managed soils, 3.C.5 Indirect N2O Emissions from managed soils, 3.C.6 Indirect N2O Emissions from manure management, 3.C.7 Rice cultivations). The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
