- Latvia
- Uganda
How they compare
Uganda currently reports 3.84 Mt CO2e against 2.92 Mt CO2e in Latvia, a difference of 0.92 Mt CO2e.
That makes Uganda's figure about 1.3 times Latvia's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Latvia ahead.
Latvia ranks 112th and Uganda ranks 109th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Latvia averaged higher in 5 and Uganda in 1.

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).
