Germany vs Least developed countries: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Building (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Building (Energy) over time
- Germany
- Least developed countries
How they compare
Least developed countries currently reports 10.86 Mt CO2e against 1.04 Mt CO2e in Germany, a difference of 9.82 Mt CO2e.
That makes Least developed countries's figure about 10.4 times Germany's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, Least developed countries has been ahead every year.
Germany ranks 17th and Least developed countries ranks 19th of 197 countries.
Least developed countries 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).
