Germany vs Post-demographic dividend: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Processes
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- Germany
- Post-demographic dividend
How they compare
Post-demographic dividend currently reports 82.38 Mt CO2e against 4.36 Mt CO2e in Germany, a difference of 78.02 Mt CO2e.
That makes Post-demographic dividend's figure about 18.9 times Germany's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, Post-demographic dividend has been ahead every year.
Germany ranks 13th and Post-demographic dividend ranks 10th of 203 countries.
Post-demographic dividend 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 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).
