Canada vs Euro area: Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy)
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Canada
- Euro area
How they compare
Canada currently reports 140.26 Mt CO2e against 121.7 Mt CO2e in Euro area, a difference of 18.56 Mt CO2e.
That makes Canada's figure about 1.2 times Euro area's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Euro area ahead.
Canada ranks 4th and Euro area ranks 2nd of 190 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Canada averaged higher in 1 and Euro area in 5.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Canada | Euro area | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 37.82 Mt CO2e | 187.1 Mt CO2e | 149.27 Mt CO2e | Euro area |
| 1980s | 38.18 Mt CO2e | 172.82 Mt CO2e | 134.64 Mt CO2e | Euro area |
| 1990s | 51.62 Mt CO2e | 163.35 Mt CO2e | 111.73 Mt CO2e | Euro area |
| 2000s | 83.77 Mt CO2e | 152.55 Mt CO2e | 68.78 Mt CO2e | Euro area |
| 2010s | 122.51 Mt CO2e | 141.64 Mt CO2e | 19.13 Mt CO2e | Euro area |
| 2020s | 139.78 Mt CO2e | 126.52 Mt CO2e | 13.27 Mt CO2e | Canada |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

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).
