- Congo
- Somalia
How they compare
Somalia currently reports 0.0858 Mt CO2e against 0.0796 Mt CO2e in Congo, a difference of 0.0062 Mt CO2e.
That makes Somalia's figure about 1.1 times Congo's.
The two have swapped places 6 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Somalia ahead.
Congo ranks 162nd and Somalia ranks 159th of 193 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Congo averaged higher in 1 and Somalia in 5.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the building sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.4 Residential and other sectors, 1.A.5 Non-Specified. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
