- Poland
- Russia
How they compare
Russia currently reports 2.01 Mt CO2e against 1.9 Mt CO2e in Poland, a difference of 0.11 Mt CO2e.
That makes Russia's figure about 1.1 times Poland's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Russia ahead.
Poland ranks 11th and Russia ranks 10th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Poland averaged higher in 3 and Russia in 3.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Poland | Russia | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 0.707 Mt CO2e | 1.48 Mt CO2e | 0.7749 Mt CO2e | Russia |
| 1980s | 0.9506 Mt CO2e | 1.78 Mt CO2e | 0.8253 Mt CO2e | Russia |
| 1990s | 1.33 Mt CO2e | 1.85 Mt CO2e | 0.5167 Mt CO2e | Russia |
| 2000s | 3.03 Mt CO2e | 1.59 Mt CO2e | 1.44 Mt CO2e | Poland |
| 2010s | 2.61 Mt CO2e | 1.6 Mt CO2e | 1 Mt CO2e | Poland |

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).
