Australia vs Pakistan: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy) over time
- Australia
- Pakistan
How they compare
Australia currently reports 0.7165 Mt CO2e against 0.5212 Mt CO2e in Pakistan, a difference of 0.1953 Mt CO2e.
That makes Australia's figure about 1.4 times Pakistan's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Australia ahead.
Australia ranks 17th and Pakistan ranks 20th of 194 countries.
Australia 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 electricity and heat generation (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.1.a. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
