- IBRD only
- United States
How they compare
IBRD only currently reports 1,493 Mt CO2e against 215.6 Mt CO2e in United States, a difference of 1,277 Mt CO2e.
That makes IBRD only's figure about 6.9 times United States's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, IBRD only has been ahead every year.
IBRD only ranks 5th and United States ranks 3rd of 46 groups.
IBRD only 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).
