Map of the density of countries per year by greenhouse gas emissions (CO2, CH4, N2O, HFCs, PFCs, SF6)

Updated: 93d ago

This area map of countries per year shows the sum of greenhouse gas emissions (CO2, CH4, N2O, HFCs, PFCs, SF6). The darker shades for each country indicate a higher sum of greenhouse gas emissions (CO2, CH4, N2O, HFCs, PFCs, SF6).

  • Country: Name of country.
  • Greenhouse Gas Emissions (Co2, Ch4, N2o, Hfcs, Pfcs, Sf6) (Mt of CO2 equivalent): 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 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).
