- Australia
- Mexico
How they compare
Mexico currently reports 44.52 Mt CO2e against 39.55 Mt CO2e in Australia, a difference of 4.97 Mt CO2e.
That makes Mexico's figure about 1.1 times Australia's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Australia ahead.
Australia ranks 21st and Mexico ranks 19th of 193 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Australia averaged higher in 1 and Mexico in 5.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from industrial combustion (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.2 Manufacturing Industries and Construction. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
