Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy) over time
- Poland
- South Asia
How they compare
South Asia currently reports 24.93 Mt CO2e against 1.9 Mt CO2e in Poland, a difference of 23.03 Mt CO2e.
That makes South Asia's figure about 13.1 times Poland's.
The two have swapped places 6 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was South Asia ahead.
Poland ranks 11th and South Asia ranks 13th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Poland averaged higher in 1 and South Asia in 5.

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).
