Namibia vs Somalia: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy) over time
- Namibia
- Somalia
How they compare
Somalia currently reports 0.0023 Mt CO2e against 0.0021 Mt CO2e in Namibia, a difference of 0.0002 Mt CO2e.
That makes Somalia's figure about 1.1 times Namibia's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Somalia ahead.
Namibia ranks 133rd and Somalia ranks 131st of 193 countries.
Somalia 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).
