- Denmark
- Peru
How they compare
Denmark currently reports 0.1325 Mt CO2e against 0.1245 Mt CO2e in Peru, a difference of 0.008 Mt CO2e.
That makes Denmark's figure about 1.1 times Peru's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Denmark ahead.
Denmark ranks 65th and Peru ranks 67th of 197 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Denmark averaged higher in 5 and Peru in 1.

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).
