Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy) over time
- Greenland
- Guinea-Bissau
How they compare
Greenland currently reports 0.0515 Mt CO2e against 0.041 Mt CO2e in Guinea-Bissau, a difference of 0.0105 Mt CO2e.
That makes Greenland's figure about 1.3 times Guinea-Bissau's.
The two have swapped places 5 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Guinea-Bissau ahead.
Greenland ranks 170th and Guinea-Bissau ranks 173rd of 193 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Greenland averaged higher in 3 and Guinea-Bissau in 3.

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).
