- Canada
- Indonesia
How they compare
Indonesia currently reports 0.1777 Mt CO2e against 0.1026 Mt CO2e in Canada, a difference of 0.0751 Mt CO2e.
That makes Indonesia's figure about 1.7 times Canada's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Canada ahead.
Canada ranks 13th and Indonesia ranks 10th of 100 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Canada averaged higher in 4 and Indonesia in 2.

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).
