- Japan
- Poland
How they compare
Poland currently reports 1 Mt CO2e against 0.9263 Mt CO2e in Japan, a difference of 0.0737 Mt CO2e.
That makes Poland's figure about 1.1 times Japan's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Japan ahead.
Japan ranks 19th and Poland ranks 18th of 197 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Japan averaged higher in 5 and Poland 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).
