Iraq vs Vietnam: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Transport (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- Iraq
- Vietnam
How they compare
Vietnam currently reports 0.4764 Mt CO2e against 0.4492 Mt CO2e in Iraq, a difference of 0.0272 Mt CO2e.
That makes Vietnam's figure about 1.1 times Iraq's.
The two have swapped places 5 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Iraq ahead.
Iraq ranks 33rd and Vietnam ranks 32nd of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Iraq averaged higher in 5 and Vietnam in 1.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Iraq | Vietnam | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 0.0462 Mt CO2e | 0.0109 Mt CO2e | 0.0353 Mt CO2e | Iraq |
| 1980s | 0.142 Mt CO2e | 0.0266 Mt CO2e | 0.1154 Mt CO2e | Iraq |
| 1990s | 0.2792 Mt CO2e | 0.0851 Mt CO2e | 0.1941 Mt CO2e | Iraq |
| 2000s | 0.2726 Mt CO2e | 0.2369 Mt CO2e | 0.0356 Mt CO2e | Iraq |
| 2010s | 0.3 Mt CO2e | 0.3656 Mt CO2e | 0.0656 Mt CO2e | Vietnam |
| 2020s | 0.3939 Mt CO2e | 0.3935 Mt CO2e | 0.0004 Mt CO2e | Iraq |
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).
