Liberia vs Niger: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Processes
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- Liberia
- Niger
How they compare
Niger currently reports 0.1244 Mt CO2e against 0.115 Mt CO2e in Liberia, a difference of 0.0094 Mt CO2e.
That makes Niger's figure about 1.1 times Liberia's.
The two have swapped places 6 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Niger ahead.
Liberia ranks 125th and Niger ranks 122nd of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Liberia averaged higher in 4 and Niger in 2.

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).
