- Colombia
- Sweden
How they compare
Colombia currently reports 0.1278 Mt CO2e against 0.1216 Mt CO2e in Sweden, a difference of 0.0062 Mt CO2e.
That makes Colombia's figure about 1.1 times Sweden's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Colombia ahead.
Colombia ranks 66th and Sweden ranks 69th of 197 countries.
Colombia 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).
