- Algeria
- North America
How they compare
North America currently reports 4.17 Mt CO2e against 0.2872 Mt CO2e in Algeria, a difference of 3.88 Mt CO2e.
That makes North America's figure about 14.5 times Algeria's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, North America has been ahead every year.
Algeria ranks 19th and North America ranks 19th of 194 countries.
North America 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 transportation sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.3.a Civil Aviation, 1.A.3.b_noRES Road Transportation no resuspension, 1.A.3.c Railways, 1.A.3.d Water-borne Navigation, 1.A.3.e Other Transportation. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
