Iraq vs Malaysia: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Transport (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- Iraq
- Malaysia
How they compare
Malaysia currently reports 0.5648 Mt CO2e against 0.4492 Mt CO2e in Iraq, a difference of 0.1156 Mt CO2e.
That makes Malaysia's figure about 1.3 times Iraq's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Malaysia ahead.
Iraq ranks 33rd and Malaysia ranks 30th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Iraq averaged higher in 2 and Malaysia in 4.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Iraq | Malaysia | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 0.0462 Mt CO2e | 0.054 Mt CO2e | 0.0078 Mt CO2e | Malaysia |
| 1980s | 0.142 Mt CO2e | 0.0922 Mt CO2e | 0.0498 Mt CO2e | Iraq |
| 1990s | 0.2792 Mt CO2e | 0.2314 Mt CO2e | 0.0477 Mt CO2e | Iraq |
| 2000s | 0.2726 Mt CO2e | 0.4724 Mt CO2e | 0.1999 Mt CO2e | Malaysia |
| 2010s | 0.3 Mt CO2e | 0.5699 Mt CO2e | 0.2699 Mt CO2e | Malaysia |
| 2020s | 0.3939 Mt CO2e | 0.5055 Mt CO2e | 0.1116 Mt CO2e | Malaysia |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

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).
