Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy) over time
- Nepal
- Uruguay
How they compare
Nepal currently reports 0.0846 Mt CO2e against 0.0771 Mt CO2e in Uruguay, a difference of 0.0075 Mt CO2e.
That makes Nepal's figure about 1.1 times Uruguay's.
The two have swapped places 5 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Uruguay ahead.
Nepal ranks 35th and Uruguay ranks 37th of 193 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Nepal averaged higher in 2 and Uruguay 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).
