- Germany
- IDA total
How they compare
IDA total currently reports 14.7 Mt CO2e against 1.04 Mt CO2e in Germany, a difference of 13.66 Mt CO2e.
That makes IDA total's figure about 14.1 times Germany's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, IDA total has been ahead every year.
Germany ranks 17th and IDA total ranks 14th of 197 countries.
IDA total 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).
