- European Union
- Spain
How they compare
European Union currently reports 192.61 Mt CO2e against 19.48 Mt CO2e in Spain, a difference of 173.13 Mt CO2e.
That makes European Union's figure about 9.9 times Spain's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, European Union has been ahead every year.
European Union ranks 1st and Spain ranks 23rd of 1 regions.
European Union 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).
