India vs Iraq: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- India
- Iraq
How they compare
Iraq currently reports 0.1761 Mt CO2e against 0.1621 Mt CO2e in India, a difference of 0.014 Mt CO2e.
That makes Iraq's figure about 1.1 times India's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was India ahead.
India ranks 10th and Iraq ranks 8th of 187 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, India averaged higher in 5 and Iraq 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).
