Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions (total) excluding LULUCF over time
- Niger
- Small states
How they compare
Niger currently reports 10.02 Mt CO2e against 5.77 Mt CO2e in Small states, a difference of 4.25 Mt CO2e.
That makes Niger's figure about 1.7 times Small states's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Small states ahead.
Niger ranks 45th and Small states ranks 44th of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Niger averaged higher in 2 and Small states in 4.

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).
