Analysis
Jordan recorded 0.0058 Mt CO2e for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from building (energy) in 2024.
That represents a change of up 107.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from building (energy) in Jordan peaked at 0.0538 Mt CO2e in 1991 and was at its lowest, 0.0007 Mt CO2e, in 1972.
That places Jordan 145th out of 197 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the building sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.4 Residential and other sectors, 1.A.5 Non-Specified. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
