How they compare

Niger currently reports 10.02 Mt CO2e against 4.16 Mt CO2e in Other small states, a difference of 5.86 Mt CO2e.

That makes Niger's figure about 2.4 times Other small states's.

The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Other small states ahead.

Niger ranks 45th and Other small states ranks 44th of 203 countries.

Across the 6 decades both report, Niger averaged higher in 3 and Other small states in 3.

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).
