China (People’s Republic of) vs IBRD only: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Transport (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- China (People’s Republic of)
- IBRD only
How they compare
IBRD only currently reports 57.79 Mt CO2e against 23.15 Mt CO2e in China (People’s Republic of), a difference of 34.64 Mt CO2e.
That makes IBRD only's figure about 2.5 times China (People’s Republic of)'s.
Across all 55 years both countries report, IBRD only has been ahead every year.
China (People’s Republic of) ranks 1st and IBRD only ranks 3rd of 194 countries.
IBRD only 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).
