- IDA blend
- Kuwait
How they compare
Kuwait currently reports 242.9% against 81.9% in IDA blend, a difference of 161.0%.
That makes Kuwait's figure about 3.0 times IDA blend's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 34 shared years of data; in 1991 it was IDA blend ahead.
IDA blend ranks 30th and Kuwait ranks 31st of 45 groups.
Kuwait has averaged higher in every one of the 4 decades both report.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | IDA blend | Kuwait | Difference | Ahead |

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