Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions (total) excluding LULUCF over time
- India
- Russia
How they compare
India currently reports 3,154 Mt CO2e against 2,009 Mt CO2e in Russia, a difference of 1,145 Mt CO2e.
That makes India's figure about 1.6 times Russia's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Russia ahead.
India ranks 3rd and Russia ranks 4th of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, India averaged higher in 2 and Russia in 4.

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).
