- Mauritania
- Namibia
How they compare
Namibia currently reports 2.22 Mt CO2e against 2.11 Mt CO2e in Mauritania, a difference of 0.1058 Mt CO2e.
That makes Namibia's figure about 1.1 times Mauritania's.
The two have swapped places 8 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Namibia 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).
