- Botswana
- Rwanda
How they compare
Botswana currently reports 1.39 Mt CO2e against 1.29 Mt CO2e in Rwanda, a difference of 0.1 Mt CO2e.
That makes Botswana's figure about 1.1 times Rwanda's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Botswana ahead.
Botswana ranks 121st and Rwanda ranks 123rd of 203 countries.
Botswana 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).
