Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Malaysia
- South Asia
How they compare
South Asia currently reports 0.1668 Mt CO2e against 0.0239 Mt CO2e in Malaysia, a difference of 0.1429 Mt CO2e.
That makes South Asia's figure about 7.0 times Malaysia's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, South Asia has been ahead every year.
Malaysia ranks 39th and South Asia ranks 38th of 187 countries.
South Asia has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.

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).
