- Congo
- Guyana
How they compare
Congo currently reports 0.3281 Mt CO2e against 0.2985 Mt CO2e in Guyana, a difference of 0.0296 Mt CO2e.
That makes Congo's figure about 1.1 times Guyana's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Guyana ahead.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the agricultural sector. This includes emissions from livestock (IPCC 2006 codes 3.A.1 (enteric fermentation, 3.a.2 (manure management) and crops (IPCC 2006 codes 3.C.1 Emissions from biomass burning, 3.C.2 Liming, 3.C.3 Urea application, 3.C.4 Direct N2O Emissions from managed soils, 3.C.5 Indirect N2O Emissions from managed soils, 3.C.6 Indirect N2O Emissions from manure management, 3.C.7 Rice cultivations). The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
