Kuwait vs Other small states: Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Industrial Processes
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- Kuwait
- Other small states
How they compare
Kuwait currently reports 7.36 Mt CO2e against 3.96 Mt CO2e in Other small states, a difference of 3.4 Mt CO2e.
That makes Kuwait's figure about 1.9 times Other small states's.
The two have swapped places 7 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Other small states ahead.
Kuwait ranks 43rd and Other small states ranks 46th of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Kuwait averaged higher in 5 and Other small states in 1.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Kuwait | Other small states | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 1.71 Mt CO2e | 2.04 Mt CO2e | 0.3322 Mt CO2e | Other small states |
| 1980s | 2.29 Mt CO2e | 2.1 Mt CO2e | 0.187 Mt CO2e | Kuwait |
| 1990s | 2.32 Mt CO2e | 2.2 Mt CO2e | 0.1234 Mt CO2e | Kuwait |
| 2000s | 3.94 Mt CO2e | 2.94 Mt CO2e | 0.9944 Mt CO2e | Kuwait |
| 2010s | 5.79 Mt CO2e | 3.74 Mt CO2e | 2.05 Mt CO2e | Kuwait |
| 2020s | 6.6 Mt CO2e | 3.8 Mt CO2e | 2.8 Mt CO2e | Kuwait |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

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).
