Greenland vs IBRD only: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions (total) excluding LULUCF
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions (total) excluding LULUCF over time
- Greenland
- IBRD only
How they compare
Greenland currently reports 150.0% against 53.2% in IBRD only, a difference of 96.8%.
That makes Greenland's figure about 2.8 times IBRD only's.
The two have swapped places 5 times across 34 shared years of data; in 1991 it was IBRD only ahead.
Greenland ranks 32nd and IBRD only ranks 32nd of 203 countries.
Greenland has averaged higher in every one of the 4 decades both report.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Greenland | IBRD only | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 5.2% | 4.7% | 0.4% | Greenland |
| 2000s | 90.7% | 19.9% | 70.7% | Greenland |
| 2010s | 149.7% | 37.5% | 112.2% | Greenland |
| 2020s | 143.3% | 48.9% | 94.5% | Greenland |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

About this data
Change of emissions (as %) of current year with respect to emissions in baseline year 1990 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). Negative values indicate that the emission level for that year is lower than the emissions level in 1990.
