- France
- Italy
How they compare
Italy currently reports 0.2958 Mt CO2e against 0.2394 Mt CO2e in France, a difference of 0.0564 Mt CO2e.
That makes Italy's figure about 1.2 times France's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was France ahead.
France ranks 33rd and Italy ranks 31st of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, France averaged higher in 3 and Italy in 3.

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).
