Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions (total) excluding LULUCF over time
- Colombia
- Kenya
How they compare
Colombia currently reports 18.65 Mt CO2e against 16.11 Mt CO2e in Kenya, a difference of 2.54 Mt CO2e.
That makes Colombia's figure about 1.2 times Kenya's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Colombia ahead.
Colombia ranks 28th and Kenya ranks 31st of 203 countries.
Colombia 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).
