Latvia vs Nepal: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Latvia
- Nepal
How they compare
Nepal currently reports 0.0003 Mt CO2e against 0.0002 Mt CO2e in Latvia, a difference of 0.0001 Mt CO2e.
That makes Nepal's figure about 1.5 times Latvia's.
The two have swapped places 6 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Nepal ahead.
Latvia ranks 139th and Nepal ranks 136th of 187 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Latvia averaged higher in 3 and Nepal in 2.

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).
