Australia vs Canada: F-gases emissions from Industrial Processes
F-gases emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- Australia
- Canada
How they compare
Canada currently reports 16.12 Mt CO2e against 12.67 Mt CO2e in Australia, a difference of 3.45 Mt CO2e.
That makes Canada's figure about 1.3 times Australia's.
Across all 35 years both countries report, Canada has been ahead every year.
Australia ranks 21st and Canada ranks 18th of 154 countries.
Canada has averaged higher in every one of the 4 decades both report.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Australia | Canada | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 4.83 Mt CO2e | 14.28 Mt CO2e | 9.45 Mt CO2e | Canada |
| 2000s | 5.85 Mt CO2e | 16.39 Mt CO2e | 10.54 Mt CO2e | Canada |
| 2010s | 9.25 Mt CO2e | 17.17 Mt CO2e | 7.91 Mt CO2e | Canada |
| 2020s | 11.94 Mt CO2e | 16.92 Mt CO2e | 4.98 Mt CO2e | Canada |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of fluorinated gases (hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), and sulphur hexafluoride (SF6)), from industrial processes including IPCC 2006 codes 2.B Chemical Industry, 2.C Metal Industry, 2.E Electronics Industry, 2.F Product Uses as Substitutes for Ozone Depleting Substances, 2.G Other Product Manufacture and Use The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
