How they compare

Lesotho currently reports 3.06 Mt CO2e against 2.81 Mt CO2e in Bhutan, a difference of 0.2487 Mt CO2e.

That makes Lesotho's figure about 1.1 times Bhutan's.

The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Lesotho ahead.

Globally, Bhutan ranks 160th and Lesotho ranks 158th of 203 countries.

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 Land Use Change 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).
