How they compare

Greenland currently reports 0 Mt CO2e per person against 0 Mt CO2e per person in China, a difference of 0 Mt CO2e per person.

That makes Greenland's figure about 1.1 times China's.

The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was China ahead.

China ranks 22nd and Greenland ranks 20th of 203 countries.

Across the 6 decades both report, China averaged higher in 3 and Greenland in 3.
