Iraq vs Low income: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy) over time
- Iraq
- Low income
How they compare
Low income currently reports 0.2932 Mt CO2e against 0.1426 Mt CO2e in Iraq, a difference of 0.1506 Mt CO2e.
That makes Low income's figure about 2.1 times Iraq's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Low income ahead.
Iraq ranks 43rd and Low income ranks 42nd of 194 countries.
Low income 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).
