- Congo
- Luxembourg
How they compare
Luxembourg currently reports 0.0061 Mt CO2e against 0.0052 Mt CO2e in Congo, a difference of 0.0009 Mt CO2e.
That makes Luxembourg's figure about 1.2 times Congo's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Luxembourg ahead.
Congo ranks 96th and Luxembourg ranks 93rd of 194 countries.
Luxembourg 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 electricity and heat generation (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.1.a. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
