- Mexico
- New Zealand
How they compare
Mexico currently reports 0.0737 Mt CO2e against 0.0682 Mt CO2e in New Zealand, a difference of 0.0055 Mt CO2e.
That makes Mexico's figure about 1.1 times New Zealand's.
The two have swapped places 14 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Mexico ahead.
Mexico ranks 22nd and New Zealand ranks 23rd of 94 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Mexico averaged higher in 1 and New Zealand in 5.

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).
