Pakistan vs Zambia: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy) over time
- Pakistan
- Zambia
How they compare
Zambia currently reports 0.5888 Mt CO2e against 0.5212 Mt CO2e in Pakistan, a difference of 0.0676 Mt CO2e.
That makes Zambia's figure about 1.1 times Pakistan's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Pakistan ahead.
Pakistan ranks 20th and Zambia ranks 19th of 194 countries.
Pakistan 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).
