- Myanmar
- New Zealand
How they compare
Myanmar currently reports 10.84 Mt CO2e against 9.33 Mt CO2e in New Zealand, a difference of 1.51 Mt CO2e.
That makes Myanmar's figure about 1.2 times New Zealand's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was New Zealand ahead.
Myanmar ranks 34th and New Zealand ranks 37th of 201 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Myanmar averaged higher in 2 and New Zealand in 4.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Myanmar | New Zealand | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 5.24 Mt CO2e | 7.84 Mt CO2e | 2.6 Mt CO2e | New Zealand |
| 1980s | 6.75 Mt CO2e | 8.37 Mt CO2e | 1.62 Mt CO2e | New Zealand |
| 1990s | 7.16 Mt CO2e | 8.66 Mt CO2e | 1.5 Mt CO2e | New Zealand |
| 2000s | 9.5 Mt CO2e | 9.89 Mt CO2e | 0.3886 Mt CO2e | New Zealand |
| 2010s | 12.51 Mt CO2e | 10.43 Mt CO2e | 2.08 Mt CO2e | Myanmar |
| 2020s | 10.88 Mt CO2e | 9.79 Mt CO2e | 1.09 Mt CO2e | Myanmar |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the agricultural sector. This includes emissions from livestock (IPCC 2006 codes 3.A.1 (enteric fermentation, 3.a.2 (manure management) and crops (IPCC 2006 codes 3.C.1 Emissions from biomass burning, 3.C.2 Liming, 3.C.3 Urea application, 3.C.4 Direct N2O Emissions from managed soils, 3.C.5 Indirect N2O Emissions from managed soils, 3.C.6 Indirect N2O Emissions from manure management, 3.C.7 Rice cultivations). The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
