- Canada
- South Asia
How they compare
South Asia currently reports 718.01 Mt CO2e against 65.82 Mt CO2e in Canada, a difference of 652.19 Mt CO2e.
That makes South Asia's figure about 10.9 times Canada's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Canada ahead.
Canada ranks 14th and South Asia ranks 17th of 193 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Canada averaged higher in 1 and South Asia 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).
