Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Papua New Guinea
- Zimbabwe
How they compare
Zimbabwe currently reports 0.0009 Mt CO2e against 0.0008 Mt CO2e in Papua New Guinea, a difference of 0.0001 Mt CO2e.
That makes Zimbabwe's figure about 1.1 times Papua New Guinea's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Zimbabwe ahead.
Papua New Guinea ranks 129th and Zimbabwe ranks 126th of 187 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Papua New Guinea averaged higher in 3 and Zimbabwe in 3.

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).
