Samoa vs Vanuatu: Total greenhouse gas emissions excluding LULUCF
Total greenhouse gas emissions excluding LULUCF over time
- Samoa
- Vanuatu
How they compare
Vanuatu currently reports 0.6321 Mt CO2e against 0.5216 Mt CO2e in Samoa, a difference of 0.1105 Mt CO2e.
That makes Vanuatu's figure about 1.2 times Samoa's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Vanuatu ahead.
Globally, Samoa ranks 181st and Vanuatu ranks 178th of 203 countries.

About this data
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).
