Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions (total) excluding LULUCF over time
- French Polynesia
- Samoa
How they compare
Samoa currently reports 0.0377 Mt CO2e against 0.0333 Mt CO2e in French Polynesia, a difference of 0.0044 Mt CO2e.
That makes Samoa's figure about 1.1 times French Polynesia's.
The two have swapped places 6 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Samoa ahead.
French Polynesia ranks 176th and Samoa ranks 174th of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, French Polynesia averaged higher in 1 and Samoa in 5.

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).
