Denmark vs Other small states: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy) over time
- Denmark
- Other small states
How they compare
Other small states currently reports 0.4034 Mt CO2e against 0.1429 Mt CO2e in Denmark, a difference of 0.2605 Mt CO2e.
That makes Other small states's figure about 2.8 times Denmark's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Denmark ahead.
Denmark ranks 42nd and Other small states ranks 41st of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Denmark averaged higher in 5 and Other small states in 1.
Head to head by 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).
