- Australia
- Poland
How they compare
Australia currently reports 0.0216 Mt CO2e against 0.0169 Mt CO2e in Poland, a difference of 0.0047 Mt CO2e.
That makes Australia's figure about 1.3 times Poland's.
The two have swapped places 5 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Poland ahead.
Australia ranks 41st and Poland ranks 43rd of 94 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Australia averaged higher in 3 and Poland in 3.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from industrial processes including IPCC 2006 codes 2.A.1 Cement production, 2.A.2 Lime production, 2.A.3 Glass Production, 2.A.4 Other Process Uses of Carbonates, 2.B Chemical Industry, 2.C Metal Industry, 2.D Non-Energy Products from Fuels and Solvent Use, 2.E Electronics Industry, 2.F Product Uses as Substitutes for Ozone Depleting Substances, 2.G Other Product Manufacture and Use and 5.A Indirect N2O emissions from the atmospheric deposition of nitrogen in NOx and NH3. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
