- Botswana
- Burkina Faso
How they compare
Botswana currently reports 6.9 Mt CO2e against 6.48 Mt CO2e in Burkina Faso, a difference of 0.42 Mt CO2e.
That makes Botswana's figure about 1.1 times Burkina Faso's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Burkina Faso ahead.
Botswana ranks 127th and Burkina Faso ranks 129th of 203 countries.
Botswana 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 agriculture, energy, waste, and industrial sectors, excluding LULUCF. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
