Brazil vs IBRD only: Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Waste
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Waste over time
- Brazil
- IBRD only
How they compare
IBRD only currently reports 5.67 Mt CO2e against 0.305 Mt CO2e in Brazil, a difference of 5.37 Mt CO2e.
That makes IBRD only's figure about 18.6 times Brazil's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, IBRD only has been ahead every year.
Brazil ranks 7th and IBRD only ranks 7th of 100 countries.
IBRD only 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 waste sector. This includes emissions from solid waste (IPCC 2006 codes 4.A Solid Waste Disposal, 4.B Biological Treatment of Solid Waste, 4.C Incineration and Open Burning of Waste) and wastewater treatment (IPCC 2006 code 4.D Wastewater Treatment and Discharge). The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
