- Least developed countries
- Ukraine
How they compare
Least developed countries currently reports 1,728 Mt CO2e against 196.96 Mt CO2e in Ukraine, a difference of 1,531 Mt CO2e.
That makes Least developed countries's figure about 8.8 times Ukraine's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Ukraine ahead.
Least developed countries ranks 34th and Ukraine ranks 37th of 45 groups.
Across the 6 decades both report, Least developed countries averaged higher in 4 and Ukraine in 2.

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).
