Cuba vs Kenya: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Processes
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- Cuba
- Kenya
How they compare
Kenya currently reports 0.6314 Mt CO2e against 0.54 Mt CO2e in Cuba, a difference of 0.0914 Mt CO2e.
That makes Kenya's figure about 1.2 times Cuba's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Cuba ahead.
Cuba ranks 70th and Kenya ranks 67th of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Cuba averaged higher in 5 and Kenya in 1.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from industrial processes including IPCC 2006 codes 2.A.1 Cement production, 2.A.2 Lime production, 2.A.3 Glass Production, 2.A.4 Other Process Uses of Carbonates, 2.B Chemical Industry, 2.C Metal Industry, 2.D Non-Energy Products from Fuels and Solvent Use, 2.E Electronics Industry, 2.F Product Uses as Substitutes for Ozone Depleting Substances, 2.G Other Product Manufacture and Use and 5.A Indirect N2O emissions from the atmospheric deposition of nitrogen in NOx and NH3). The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
