China vs Russian Federation: Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy)
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- China
- Russian Federation
How they compare
China currently reports 821.58 Mt CO2e against 210.54 Mt CO2e in Russian Federation, a difference of 611.04 Mt CO2e.
That makes China's figure about 3.9 times Russian Federation's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Russian Federation ahead.
China ranks 1st and Russian Federation ranks 3rd of 190 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, China averaged higher in 3 and Russian Federation in 3.

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).
