Mali vs Seychelles: CO2 emissions from fossil-fuels, total
CO2 emissions from fossil-fuels, total over time
- Mali
- Seychelles
How they compare
Seychelles currently reports 737.07 thousand metric tons against 612.39 thousand metric tons in Mali, a difference of 124.68 thousand metric tons.
That makes Seychelles's figure about 1.2 times Mali's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 47 shared years of data; in 1963 it was Mali ahead.
Mali ranks 39th and Seychelles ranks 37th of 51 countries.
Across the 5 decades both report, Mali averaged higher in 4 and Seychelles in 1.

About this data
Fossil fuel is any hydrocarbon deposit that can be burned for heat or power, such as petroleum, coal, and natural gas. This is the sum total of all fossil fuel emissions (solid fuel consumption, liquid fuel consumption, gas fuel consumption, cement production and gas flaring). The U.S. Department of Energy’s carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (CDIAC) calculates annual anthropogenic emissions from data on fossil fuel consumption (from the United Nations Statistics Division’s World Energy Data Set) and world cement manufacturing (from the U.S. Bureau of Mine’s Cement Manufacturing Data Set). Carbon dioxide emissions, often calculated and reported as elemental carbon, were converted to actual carbon dioxide mass by multiplying them by 3.664 (the ratio of the mass of carbon to that of carbon dioxide). Although estimates of global carbon dioxide emissions are probably accurate within 10 percent (as calculated from global average file chemistry and use), country estimates may have larger error bounds. Trends estimated from a consistent time series tend to be more accurate than individual values. Each year the CDIAC recalculates the entire time series since 1949, incorporating recent findings and corrections. Estimates exclude fuels supplied to ships and aircraft in international transport because of the difficulty of apportioning he fuels among benefitting countries. The ratio of carbon dioxide per unit of energy shows carbon intensity, which is the amount of carbon dioxide emitted as a result of using one unit of energy in the process of production.
