- Nepal
- Sweden
How they compare
Sweden currently reports 5.78 Mt CO2e against 4.98 Mt CO2e in Nepal, a difference of 0.8 Mt CO2e.
That makes Sweden's figure about 1.2 times Nepal's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Sweden ahead.
Nepal ranks 68th and Sweden ranks 65th of 203 countries.
Sweden 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).
