Spain vs Uganda: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy) over time
- Spain
- Uganda
How they compare
Uganda currently reports 0.1683 Mt CO2e against 0.1427 Mt CO2e in Spain, a difference of 0.0256 Mt CO2e.
That makes Uganda's figure about 1.2 times Spain's.
The two have swapped places 5 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Spain ahead.
Spain ranks 23rd and Uganda ranks 20th of 193 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Spain averaged higher in 5 and Uganda in 1.

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).
