Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Waste (Mt CO2e), per unit of GDP in Nigeria, 1970–2024
Source: Statizoid (derived). Measured in Mt CO2e per US$ of GDP.
Analysis
Nigeria recorded 0 Mt CO2e per US$ of GDP for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from waste (mt co2e), per unit of gdp in 2024.
That represents a change of up 95.8% on the previous year and up 172.9% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from waste (mt co2e), per unit of gdp in Nigeria peaked at 0 Mt CO2e per US$ of GDP in 1971 and was at its lowest, 0 Mt CO2e per US$ of GDP, in 2019.
That places Nigeria 25th out of 200 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

How this figure is calculated
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Waste (Mt CO2e) divided by GDP (current US$), matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Waste (Mt CO2e) ÷ GDP (current US$)
Computed from
- Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Waste EDGAR (Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research) Community GHG Database, Joint Research Centre (JRC) - European Commission
- GDP Country official statistics, National Statistical Organizations and/or Central Banks
Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
