- Ethiopia
- Low income
How they compare
Low income currently reports 1,054 Mt CO2e against 192.7 Mt CO2e in Ethiopia, a difference of 861.3 Mt CO2e.
That makes Low income's figure about 5.5 times Ethiopia's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, Low income has been ahead every year.
Ethiopia ranks 38th and Low income ranks 39th of 203 countries.
Low income has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of the six greenhouse gases (GHG) covered by the Kyoto Protocol (carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), and sulphurhexafluoride (SF6)) from the energy, industry, waste, and agriculture sectors, standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values. This measure excludes GHG fluxes caused by Land Use Land Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF), as these fluxes have larger uncertainties. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
