Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- European Union
- India
How they compare
European Union currently reports 782.37 Mt CO2e against 344.35 Mt CO2e in India, a difference of 438.02 Mt CO2e.
That makes European Union's figure about 2.3 times India's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, European Union has been ahead every year.
European Union ranks 1st and India ranks 3rd of 2 groups.
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 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).
