Canada vs Pakistan: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Building (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Building (Energy) over time
- Canada
- Pakistan
How they compare
Canada currently reports 1.4 Mt CO2e against 1.22 Mt CO2e in Pakistan, a difference of 0.18 Mt CO2e.
That makes Canada's figure about 1.1 times Pakistan's.
The two have swapped places 5 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Pakistan ahead.
Canada ranks 10th and Pakistan ranks 11th of 198 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Canada averaged higher in 2 and Pakistan in 4.
Head to head by decade

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 0.4674 Mt CO2e | 0.648 Mt CO2e | 0.1806 Mt CO2e | Pakistan |
| 1980s | 0.6705 Mt CO2e | 0.792 Mt CO2e | 0.1215 Mt CO2e | Pakistan |
| 1990s | 0.9426 Mt CO2e | 1.02 Mt CO2e | 0.0763 Mt CO2e | Pakistan |
| 2000s | 0.9948 Mt CO2e | 1.18 Mt CO2e | 0.1817 Mt CO2e | Pakistan |
| 2010s | 1.32 Mt CO2e | 1.28 Mt CO2e | 0.0338 Mt CO2e | Canada |
| 2020s | 1.39 Mt CO2e | 1.21 Mt CO2e | 0.178 Mt CO2e | Canada |
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 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).
