Botswana vs Greenland: Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy)
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Botswana
- Greenland
How they compare
Botswana currently reports 0.0175 Mt CO2e against 0.0096 Mt CO2e in Greenland, a difference of 0.0079 Mt CO2e.
That makes Botswana's figure about 1.8 times Greenland's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Greenland ahead.
Botswana ranks 122nd and Greenland ranks 125th of 190 countries.
Botswana has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.

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).
