Emission Totals - Emissions (CO2) - Drained organic soils over time
- Congo
- Japan
How they compare
Japan currently reports 4,045 CO2 against 3,719 CO2 in Congo, a difference of 326 CO2.
That makes Japan's figure about 1.1 times Congo's.
Across all 30 years both countries report, Japan has been ahead every year.
Congo ranks 27th and Japan ranks 26th of 102 countries.
Japan has averaged higher in every one of the 3 decades both report.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Congo | Japan | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 3,517 CO2 | 5,135 CO2 | 1,617 CO2 | Japan |
| 2000s | 3,132 CO2 | 4,889 CO2 | 1,758 CO2 | Japan |
| 2010s | 3,546 CO2 | 4,149 CO2 | 602.97 CO2 | Japan |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

About this data
The FAOSTAT domain Emissions Totals summarizes the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions generated from agriculture and forest land. They consist of methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from crop and livestock activities, forest management and include land use and land use change processes. Data are computed at Tier 1 of the IPCC Guidelines for National greenhouse gas (GHG) Inventories (IPCC, 1996; 1997; 2000; 2002; 2006; 2014). Estimates are available by country, with global coverage for the period 1961–2019 with projections for 2030 and 2050 for some categories of emissions or 1990–2019 for others. The database is updated annually. The FAOSTAT domain Emissions Totals disseminates information estimates of CH4, N2O and CO2 emissions/removals and their aggregates in CO2eq in units of kilotonnes (kt, or 106 kg). The latter are computed by using the IPCC Fifth Assessment report global warming potentials, AR5 (IPCC, 2014).
