- Equatorial Guinea
- Portugal
How they compare
Portugal currently reports 2.04 Mt CO2e against 1.87 Mt CO2e in Equatorial Guinea, a difference of 0.17 Mt CO2e.
That makes Portugal's figure about 1.1 times Equatorial Guinea's.
The two have swapped places 8 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Portugal ahead.
Equatorial Guinea ranks 68th and Portugal ranks 67th of 190 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Equatorial Guinea averaged higher in 1 and Portugal in 5.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Equatorial Guinea | Portugal | Difference | Ahead |

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).
