Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions (total) excluding LULUCF over time
- Poland
- United Kingdom
How they compare
United Kingdom currently reports 25.62 Mt CO2e against 24.17 Mt CO2e in Poland, a difference of 1.45 Mt CO2e.
That makes United Kingdom's figure about 1.1 times Poland's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Poland ahead.
Poland ranks 21st and United Kingdom ranks 20th of 203 countries.
United Kingdom 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).
