- Indonesia
- North America
How they compare
North America currently reports 1,845 Mt CO2e against 151.74 Mt CO2e in Indonesia, a difference of 1,693 Mt CO2e.
That makes North America's figure about 12.2 times Indonesia's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, North America has been ahead every year.
Indonesia ranks 8th and North America ranks 11th of 194 countries.
North America 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).
