Bhutan vs Hong Kong: Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Industrial Processes
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- Bhutan
- Hong Kong
How they compare
Hong Kong currently reports 0.6731 Mt CO2e against 0.6215 Mt CO2e in Bhutan, a difference of 0.0516 Mt CO2e.
That makes Hong Kong's figure about 1.1 times Bhutan's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Hong Kong ahead.
Bhutan ranks 120th and Hong Kong ranks 117th of 203 countries.
Hong Kong 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 industrial processes including IPCC 2006 codes 2.A.1 Cement production, 2.A.2 Lime production, 2.A.3 Glass Production, 2.A.4 Other Process Uses of Carbonates, 2.B Chemical Industry, 2.C Metal Industry, 2.D Non-Energy Products from Fuels and Solvent Use, 2.E Electronics Industry, 2.F Product Uses as Substitutes for Ozone Depleting Substances, 2.G Other Product Manufacture and Use and 5.A Indirect N2O emissions from the atmospheric deposition of nitrogen in NOx and NH3. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
