- Ghana
- Sudan
How they compare
Ghana currently reports 24.17 Mt CO2e against 21.87 Mt CO2e in Sudan, a difference of 2.3 Mt CO2e.
That makes Ghana's figure about 1.1 times Sudan's.
The two have swapped places 5 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Sudan ahead.
Ghana ranks 81st and Sudan ranks 84th of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Ghana averaged higher in 1 and Sudan in 5.

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).
