Australia vs IBRD only: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Building (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Building (Energy) over time
- Australia
- IBRD only
How they compare
IBRD only currently reports 34.89 Mt CO2e against 1.73 Mt CO2e in Australia, a difference of 33.16 Mt CO2e.
That makes IBRD only's figure about 20.2 times Australia's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, IBRD only has been ahead every year.
Australia ranks 7th and IBRD only ranks 5th of 197 countries.
IBRD only has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the building sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.4 Residential and other sectors, 1.A.5 Non-Specified. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
