Lithuania vs Netherlands: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Processes
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- Lithuania
- Netherlands
How they compare
Netherlands currently reports 1.46 Mt CO2e against 1.38 Mt CO2e in Lithuania, a difference of 0.08 Mt CO2e.
That makes Netherlands's figure about 1.1 times Lithuania's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Netherlands ahead.
Lithuania ranks 44th and Netherlands ranks 42nd of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Lithuania averaged higher in 2 and Netherlands in 4.

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).
