Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions (total) excluding LULUCF over time
- Greenland
- Kiribati
How they compare
Greenland currently reports 0.0075 Mt CO2e against 0.0071 Mt CO2e in Kiribati, a difference of 0.0004 Mt CO2e.
That makes Greenland's figure about 1.1 times Kiribati's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Greenland ahead.
Greenland ranks 192nd and Kiribati ranks 194th of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Greenland averaged higher in 3 and Kiribati in 3.

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).
