How they compare

Indonesia currently reports 1.76 Mt CO2e against 1.64 Mt CO2e in Australia, a difference of 0.12 Mt CO2e.

That makes Indonesia's figure about 1.1 times Australia's.

The two have swapped places 5 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Australia ahead.

Australia ranks 11th and Indonesia ranks 9th of 194 countries.

Across the 6 decades both report, Australia averaged higher in 5 and Indonesia in 1.

A measure of annual emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the transportation sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.3.a Civil Aviation, 1.A.3.b_noRES Road Transportation no resuspension, 1.A.3.c Railways, 1.A.3.d Water-borne Navigation, 1.A.3.e Other Transportation. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
