Iraq vs Pakistan: Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Transport (Energy)
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- Iraq
- Pakistan
How they compare
Pakistan currently reports 47.48 Mt CO2e against 44.79 Mt CO2e in Iraq, a difference of 2.69 Mt CO2e.
That makes Pakistan's figure about 1.1 times Iraq's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Pakistan ahead.
Iraq ranks 29th and Pakistan ranks 28th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Iraq averaged higher in 3 and Pakistan in 3.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Iraq | Pakistan | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 4.61 Mt CO2e | 3.98 Mt CO2e | 0.6301 Mt CO2e | Iraq |
| 1980s | 15.17 Mt CO2e | 9.91 Mt CO2e | 5.26 Mt CO2e | Iraq |
| 1990s | 23.38 Mt CO2e | 19.89 Mt CO2e | 3.49 Mt CO2e | Iraq |
| 2000s | 25.62 Mt CO2e | 28.63 Mt CO2e | 3.01 Mt CO2e | Pakistan |
| 2010s | 29.07 Mt CO2e | 42.2 Mt CO2e | 13.13 Mt CO2e | Pakistan |
| 2020s | 38.73 Mt CO2e | 52.08 Mt CO2e | 13.35 Mt CO2e | Pakistan |
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).
