Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- Burkina Faso
- El Salvador
How they compare
El Salvador currently reports 0.0508 Mt CO2e against 0.0451 Mt CO2e in Burkina Faso, a difference of 0.0057 Mt CO2e.
That makes El Salvador's figure about 1.1 times Burkina Faso's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was El Salvador ahead.
Burkina Faso ranks 105th and El Salvador ranks 102nd of 194 countries.
El Salvador 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 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).
