Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy) over time
- Ghana
- Netherlands
How they compare
Ghana currently reports 0.0169 Mt CO2e against 0.016 Mt CO2e in Netherlands, a difference of 0.0009 Mt CO2e.
That makes Ghana's figure about 1.1 times Netherlands's.
The two have swapped places 5 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Netherlands ahead.
Ghana ranks 76th and Netherlands ranks 77th of 193 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Ghana averaged higher in 1 and Netherlands in 5.

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).
