Kenya vs Least developed countries: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Kenya
- Least developed countries
How they compare
Least developed countries currently reports 1.27 Mt CO2e against 0.0954 Mt CO2e in Kenya, a difference of 1.17 Mt CO2e.
That makes Least developed countries's figure about 13.3 times Kenya's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, Least developed countries has been ahead every year.
Kenya ranks 15th and Least developed countries ranks 17th of 187 countries.
Least developed countries has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Kenya | Least developed countries | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 0.0296 Mt CO2e | 0.3082 Mt CO2e | 0.2787 Mt CO2e | Least developed countries |
| 1980s | 0.0382 Mt CO2e | 0.3669 Mt CO2e | 0.3287 Mt CO2e | Least developed countries |
| 1990s | 0.0503 Mt CO2e | 0.5127 Mt CO2e | 0.4624 Mt CO2e | Least developed countries |
| 2000s | 0.0671 Mt CO2e | 0.6706 Mt CO2e | 0.6035 Mt CO2e | Least developed countries |
| 2010s | 0.087 Mt CO2e | 1 Mt CO2e | 0.9147 Mt CO2e | Least developed countries |
| 2020s | 0.0932 Mt CO2e | 1.24 Mt CO2e | 1.15 Mt CO2e | Least developed countries |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

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).
