Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Denmark
- Lithuania
How they compare
Lithuania currently reports 0.0012 Mt CO2e against 0.0011 Mt CO2e in Denmark, a difference of 0.0001 Mt CO2e.
That makes Lithuania's figure about 1.1 times Denmark's.
The two have swapped places 10 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Lithuania ahead.
Denmark ranks 121st and Lithuania ranks 120th of 187 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Denmark averaged higher in 3 and Lithuania 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).
