Analysis
The most recent figure for emission totals - emissions (co2eq) from n2o (ar5) - on-farm energy in Greenland is 10, measured in 2019.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 1.4% on the previous year and down 8.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, emission totals - emissions (co2eq) from n2o (ar5) - on-farm energy in Greenland peaked at 12.62 in 2007 and was at its lowest, 2.4, in 1993.
Greenland ranks 108th of 204 countries on this measure, 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
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).
