- Indonesia
- North Korea
How they compare
North Korea currently reports 1.16 Mt CO2e against 1.05 Mt CO2e in Indonesia, a difference of 0.11 Mt CO2e.
That makes North Korea's figure about 1.1 times Indonesia's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Indonesia ahead.
Indonesia ranks 40th and North Korea ranks 38th of 197 countries.
Indonesia has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the building sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.4 Residential and other sectors, 1.A.5 Non-Specified. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
