- Canada
- Italy
How they compare
Canada currently reports 79.45 Mt CO2e against 69.16 Mt CO2e in Italy, a difference of 10.29 Mt CO2e.
That makes Canada's figure about 1.1 times Italy's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Italy ahead.
Canada ranks 23rd and Italy ranks 24th of 194 countries.
Italy 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 electricity and heat generation (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.1.a. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
