Cameroon vs Senegal: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy) over time
- Cameroon
- Senegal
How they compare
Senegal currently reports 0.0037 Mt CO2e against 0.0033 Mt CO2e in Cameroon, a difference of 0.0004 Mt CO2e.
That makes Senegal's figure about 1.1 times Cameroon's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Cameroon ahead.
Cameroon ranks 123rd and Senegal ranks 120th of 193 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Cameroon averaged higher in 4 and Senegal in 2.

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).
