Denmark vs Zimbabwe: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy) over time
- Denmark
- Zimbabwe
How they compare
Zimbabwe currently reports 0.0127 Mt CO2e against 0.0115 Mt CO2e in Denmark, a difference of 0.0012 Mt CO2e.
That makes Zimbabwe's figure about 1.1 times Denmark's.
The two have swapped places 7 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Denmark ahead.
Denmark ranks 87th and Zimbabwe ranks 84th of 193 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Denmark 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 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).
