Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Building (Energy) over time
- Libya
- Namibia
How they compare
Libya currently reports 0.0102 Mt CO2e against 0.0084 Mt CO2e in Namibia, a difference of 0.0018 Mt CO2e.
That makes Libya's figure about 1.2 times Namibia's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Libya ahead.
Libya ranks 137th and Namibia ranks 138th of 197 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Libya averaged higher in 3 and Namibia in 3.

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).
