- Mali
- Senegal
How they compare
Senegal currently reports 0.3157 Mt CO2e against 0.2875 Mt CO2e in Mali, a difference of 0.0282 Mt CO2e.
That makes Senegal's figure about 1.1 times Mali's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Mali ahead.
Mali ranks 62nd and Senegal ranks 60th of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Mali averaged higher in 2 and Senegal in 4.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the waste sector. This includes emissions from solid waste (IPCC 2006 codes 4.A Solid Waste Disposal, 4.B Biological Treatment of Solid Waste, 4.C Incineration and Open Burning of Waste) and wastewater treatment (IPCC 2006 code 4.D Wastewater Treatment and Discharge). The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
