- Kenya
- Nepal
How they compare
Nepal currently reports 0.5681 Mt CO2e against 0.4097 Mt CO2e in Kenya, a difference of 0.1584 Mt CO2e.
That makes Nepal's figure about 1.4 times Kenya's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, Nepal has been ahead every year.
Kenya ranks 29th and Nepal ranks 26th of 197 countries.
Nepal 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).
