- Sudan
- Venezuela
How they compare
Sudan currently reports 9.96 Mt CO2e against 7.94 Mt CO2e in Venezuela, a difference of 2.02 Mt CO2e.
That makes Sudan's figure about 1.3 times Venezuela's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Venezuela ahead.
Sudan ranks 36th and Venezuela ranks 39th of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Sudan averaged higher in 1 and Venezuela in 5.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the waste sector. This includes emissions from solid waste (IPCC 2006 codes 4.A Solid Waste Disposal, 4.B Biological Treatment of Solid Waste, 4.C Incineration and Open Burning of Waste) and wastewater treatment (IPCC 2006 code 4.D Wastewater Treatment and Discharge). The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
