- Indonesia
- Saudi Arabia
How they compare
Indonesia currently reports 1.76 Mt CO2e against 1.67 Mt CO2e in Saudi Arabia, a difference of 0.09 Mt CO2e.
That makes Indonesia's figure about 1.1 times Saudi Arabia's.
The two have swapped places 10 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Indonesia ahead.
Indonesia ranks 9th and Saudi Arabia ranks 10th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Indonesia averaged higher in 2 and Saudi Arabia in 4.

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).
