Afghanistan vs Belarus: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy) over time
- Afghanistan
- Belarus
How they compare
Afghanistan currently reports 0.0137 Mt CO2e against 0.0129 Mt CO2e in Belarus, a difference of 0.0008 Mt CO2e.
That makes Afghanistan's figure about 1.1 times Belarus's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Belarus ahead.
Afghanistan ranks 82nd and Belarus ranks 83rd of 193 countries.
Belarus 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 industrial combustion (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.2 Manufacturing Industries and Construction. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
