Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Building (Energy) over time
- New Zealand
- Peru
How they compare
Peru currently reports 0.1245 Mt CO2e against 0.1162 Mt CO2e in New Zealand, a difference of 0.0083 Mt CO2e.
That makes Peru's figure about 1.1 times New Zealand's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Peru ahead.
New Zealand ranks 70th and Peru ranks 67th of 197 countries.
Peru 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).
