Denmark vs Greece: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy) over time
- Denmark
- Greece
How they compare
Denmark currently reports 0.0115 Mt CO2e against 0.0109 Mt CO2e in Greece, a difference of 0.0006 Mt CO2e.
That makes Denmark's figure about 1.1 times Greece's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Denmark ahead.
Denmark ranks 88th and Greece ranks 91st of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Denmark averaged higher in 2 and Greece in 4.

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).
