Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions (total) excluding LULUCF over time
- Argentina
- Canada
How they compare
Canada currently reports 40.89 Mt CO2e against 37.33 Mt CO2e in Argentina, a difference of 3.56 Mt CO2e.
That makes Canada's figure about 1.1 times Argentina's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Canada ahead.
Argentina ranks 11th and Canada ranks 10th of 203 countries.
Canada has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the agriculture, energy, waste, and industrial sectors, excluding LULUCF.. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
