Russia vs World: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Russia
- World
How they compare
World currently reports 8.5 Mt CO2e against 0.2576 Mt CO2e in Russia, a difference of 8.24 Mt CO2e.
That makes World's figure about 33.0 times Russia's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, World has been ahead every year.
Russia ranks 4th and World ranks 1st of 187 countries.
World has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Russia | World | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 0.1497 Mt CO2e | 3.54 Mt CO2e | 3.39 Mt CO2e | World |
| 1980s | 0.1655 Mt CO2e | 3.57 Mt CO2e | 3.4 Mt CO2e | World |
| 1990s | 0.2895 Mt CO2e | 4.46 Mt CO2e | 4.17 Mt CO2e | World |
| 2000s | 0.4116 Mt CO2e | 5.75 Mt CO2e | 5.34 Mt CO2e | World |
| 2010s | 0.2409 Mt CO2e | 8.05 Mt CO2e | 7.81 Mt CO2e | World |
| 2020s | 0.2401 Mt CO2e | 8.14 Mt CO2e | 7.9 Mt CO2e | World |
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).
