Least developed countries vs Sweden: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy) over time
- Least developed countries
- Sweden
How they compare
Least developed countries currently reports 1.08 Mt CO2e against 0.2623 Mt CO2e in Sweden, a difference of 0.8177 Mt CO2e.
That makes Least developed countries's figure about 4.1 times Sweden's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Sweden ahead.
Least developed countries ranks 33rd and Sweden ranks 32nd of 45 groups.
Across the 6 decades both report, Least developed countries averaged higher in 2 and Sweden in 4.

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).
