Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- Guyana
- Sierra Leone
How they compare
Guyana currently reports 0.0132 Mt CO2e against 0.0113 Mt CO2e in Sierra Leone, a difference of 0.0019 Mt CO2e.
That makes Guyana's figure about 1.2 times Sierra Leone's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Guyana ahead.
Guyana ranks 142nd and Sierra Leone ranks 145th of 194 countries.
Guyana 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).
