- Eswatini
- Zambia
How they compare
Zambia currently reports 0.0026 Mt CO2e against 0.0022 Mt CO2e in Eswatini, a difference of 0.0004 Mt CO2e.
That makes Zambia's figure about 1.2 times Eswatini's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Zambia ahead.
Eswatini ranks 116th and Zambia ranks 113th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Eswatini averaged higher in 2 and Zambia in 4.

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).
