- Nigeria
- Poland
How they compare
Nigeria currently reports 28.96 Mt CO2e against 24.17 Mt CO2e in Poland, a difference of 4.79 Mt CO2e.
That makes Nigeria's figure about 1.2 times Poland's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Poland ahead.
Nigeria ranks 18th and Poland ranks 21st of 203 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Nigeria averaged higher in 1 and Poland in 5.

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).
