- Small states
- Sudan
How they compare
Sudan currently reports 138.7 Mt CO2e against 121.58 Mt CO2e in Small states, a difference of 17.12 Mt CO2e.
That makes Sudan's figure about 1.1 times Small states's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Small states ahead.
Small states ranks 42nd and Sudan ranks 43rd of 45 groups.
Across the 6 decades both report, Small states averaged higher in 5 and Sudan in 1.

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).
