Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy) over time
- Greenland
- Samoa
How they compare
Greenland currently reports 0.0515 Mt CO2e against 0.0426 Mt CO2e in Samoa, a difference of 0.0089 Mt CO2e.
That makes Greenland's figure about 1.2 times Samoa's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Samoa ahead.
Greenland ranks 170th and Samoa ranks 171st of 193 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Greenland averaged higher in 2 and Samoa in 4.

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).
