- Morocco
- Tanzania
How they compare
Tanzania currently reports 0.6753 Mt CO2e against 0.643 Mt CO2e in Morocco, a difference of 0.0323 Mt CO2e.
That makes Tanzania's figure about 1.1 times Morocco's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Morocco ahead.
Morocco ranks 36th and Tanzania ranks 34th of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Morocco averaged higher in 5 and Tanzania in 1.

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).
