Congo vs Pre-demographic dividend: Carbon intensity of GDP
Carbon intensity of GDP over time
- Congo
- Pre-demographic dividend
How they compare
Congo currently reports 0.7988 kg CO2e per constant 2015 US$ of GDP against 0.3955 kg CO2e per constant 2015 US$ of GDP in Pre-demographic dividend, a difference of 0.4033 kg CO2e per constant 2015 US$ of GDP.
That makes Congo's figure about 2.0 times Pre-demographic dividend's.
The two have swapped places 6 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Congo ahead.
Congo ranks 26th and Pre-demographic dividend ranks 26th of 199 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Congo averaged higher in 4 and Pre-demographic dividend in 2.
