Canada vs Least developed countries: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy) over time
- Canada
- Least developed countries
How they compare
Least developed countries currently reports 1.08 Mt CO2e against 0.2154 Mt CO2e in Canada, a difference of 0.8646 Mt CO2e.
That makes Least developed countries's figure about 5.0 times Canada's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Canada ahead.
Canada ranks 35th and Least developed countries ranks 33rd of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Canada averaged higher in 4 and Least developed countries in 2.

| 1980s | 0.3267 Mt CO2e | 0.0182 Mt CO2e | 0.3086 Mt CO2e | Canada |
| 1990s | 0.4202 Mt CO2e | 0.0301 Mt CO2e | 0.3901 Mt CO2e | Canada |
| 2000s | 0.4834 Mt CO2e | 0.0611 Mt CO2e | 0.4223 Mt CO2e | Canada |
| 2010s | 0.3535 Mt CO2e | 0.4469 Mt CO2e | 0.0934 Mt CO2e | Least developed countries |
| 2020s | 0.2286 Mt CO2e | 0.9725 Mt CO2e | 0.7439 Mt CO2e | Least developed countries |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

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).
