Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Mauritania
- Morocco
How they compare
Morocco currently reports 0.0066 Mt CO2e against 0.0055 Mt CO2e in Mauritania, a difference of 0.0011 Mt CO2e.
That makes Morocco's figure about 1.2 times Mauritania's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Morocco ahead.
Mauritania ranks 130th and Morocco ranks 127th of 190 countries.
Morocco 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).
