Kazakhstan vs Nigeria: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Transport (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- Kazakhstan
- Nigeria
How they compare
Kazakhstan currently reports 0.6605 Mt CO2e against 0.6115 Mt CO2e in Nigeria, a difference of 0.049 Mt CO2e.
That makes Kazakhstan's figure about 1.1 times Nigeria's.
The two have swapped places 6 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Kazakhstan ahead.
Kazakhstan ranks 25th and Nigeria ranks 26th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Kazakhstan averaged higher in 3 and Nigeria in 3.

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).
