Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Benin
- Zambia
How they compare
Benin currently reports 0.0052 Mt CO2e against 0.0014 Mt CO2e in Zambia, a difference of 0.0038 Mt CO2e.
That makes Benin's figure about 3.7 times Zambia's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Zambia ahead.
Benin ranks 132nd and Zambia ranks 135th of 190 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Benin averaged higher in 1 and Zambia in 5.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from fugitive emissions (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.1.bc Petroleum Refining - Manufacture of Solid Fuels and Other Energy Industries, 1.B.1 Solid Fuels, 1.B.2 Oil and Natural Gas, 5.B. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
