Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Botswana
- Guinea-Bissau
How they compare
Guinea-Bissau currently reports 0.0029 Mt CO2e against 0.0026 Mt CO2e in Botswana, a difference of 0.0003 Mt CO2e.
That makes Guinea-Bissau's figure about 1.1 times Botswana's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Guinea-Bissau ahead.
Botswana ranks 107th and Guinea-Bissau ranks 104th of 187 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Botswana averaged higher in 3 and Guinea-Bissau in 3.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from fugitive emissions (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.1.bc Petroleum Refining - Manufacture of Solid Fuels and Other Energy Industries, 1.B.1 Solid Fuels, 1.B.2 Oil and Natural Gas, 5.B. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
