Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions (total) excluding LULUCF over time
- Brazil
- Russian Federation
How they compare
Brazil currently reports 169.13 Mt CO2e against 87.53 Mt CO2e in Russian Federation, a difference of 81.6 Mt CO2e.
That makes Brazil's figure about 1.9 times Russian Federation's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Russian Federation ahead.
Brazil ranks 4th and Russian Federation ranks 5th of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Brazil averaged higher in 4 and Russian Federation in 2.

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).
