Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions (total) excluding LULUCF over time
- Belarus
- South Korea
How they compare
Belarus currently reports 14.79 Mt CO2e against 13.14 Mt CO2e in South Korea, a difference of 1.65 Mt CO2e.
That makes Belarus's figure about 1.1 times South Korea's.
The two have swapped places 6 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Belarus ahead.
Belarus ranks 34th and South Korea ranks 36th of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Belarus averaged higher in 5 and South Korea in 1.

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).
