Afghanistan vs Cameroon: Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Transport (Energy)
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- Afghanistan
- Cameroon
How they compare
Afghanistan currently reports 4.31 Mt CO2e against 3.86 Mt CO2e in Cameroon, a difference of 0.45 Mt CO2e.
That makes Afghanistan's figure about 1.1 times Cameroon's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Cameroon ahead.
Afghanistan ranks 104th and Cameroon ranks 107th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Afghanistan averaged higher in 1 and Cameroon in 5.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 0.2701 Mt CO2e | 0.7608 Mt CO2e | 0.4908 Mt CO2e | Cameroon |
| 1980s | 0.5389 Mt CO2e | 1.55 Mt CO2e | 1.01 Mt CO2e | Cameroon |
| 1990s | 0.5499 Mt CO2e | 1.71 Mt CO2e | 1.16 Mt CO2e | Cameroon |
| 2000s | 0.614 Mt CO2e | 2.08 Mt CO2e | 1.47 Mt CO2e | Cameroon |
| 2010s | 3.14 Mt CO2e | 3.15 Mt CO2e | 0.0037 Mt CO2e | Cameroon |
| 2020s | 4.29 Mt CO2e | 3.67 Mt CO2e | 0.6205 Mt CO2e | Afghanistan |
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 the transportation sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.3.a Civil Aviation, 1.A.3.b_noRES Road Transportation no resuspension, 1.A.3.c Railways, 1.A.3.d Water-borne Navigation, 1.A.3.e Other Transportation. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
