Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- France
- Netherlands
How they compare
France currently reports 0.0056 Mt CO2e against 0.0052 Mt CO2e in Netherlands, a difference of 0.0004 Mt CO2e.
That makes France's figure about 1.1 times Netherlands's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was France ahead.
France ranks 86th and Netherlands ranks 88th of 187 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, France averaged higher in 5 and Netherlands in 1.

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).
