Brazil vs Canada: Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Transport (Energy)
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- Brazil
- Canada
How they compare
Brazil currently reports 219.29 Mt CO2e against 166.3 Mt CO2e in Canada, a difference of 52.99 Mt CO2e.
That makes Brazil's figure about 1.3 times Canada's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Canada ahead.
Brazil ranks 5th and Canada ranks 7th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Brazil averaged higher in 2 and Canada in 4.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Brazil | Canada | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 60.98 Mt CO2e | 102.23 Mt CO2e | 41.25 Mt CO2e | Canada |
| 1980s | 73.58 Mt CO2e | 119.06 Mt CO2e | 45.48 Mt CO2e | Canada |
| 1990s | 102.87 Mt CO2e | 135.24 Mt CO2e | 32.38 Mt CO2e | Canada |
| 2000s | 137.1 Mt CO2e | 160.43 Mt CO2e | 23.33 Mt CO2e | Canada |
| 2010s | 196.53 Mt CO2e | 172.58 Mt CO2e | 23.95 Mt CO2e | Brazil |
| 2020s | 206.56 Mt CO2e | 160.08 Mt CO2e | 46.49 Mt CO2e | Brazil |
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).
