- Africa
- USSR
How they compare
Africa currently reports 1,040 kt against 401.63 kt in USSR, a difference of 638.37 kt.
That makes Africa's figure about 2.6 times USSR's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 31 shared years of data; in 1961 it was USSR ahead.
Africa ranks 9th and USSR ranks 7th of 33 groups.
Across the 4 decades both report, Africa averaged higher in 2 and USSR in 2.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Africa | USSR | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1960s | 407.66 kt | 589 kt | 181.35 kt | USSR |
| 1970s | 456.07 kt | 521.29 kt | 65.22 kt | USSR |
| 1980s | 513.84 kt | 468.23 kt | 45.61 kt | Africa |
| 1990s | 603.54 kt | 409 kt | 194.54 kt | Africa |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

About this data
The FAOSTAT domain on Emissions Totals summarizes the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions disseminated in the FAOSTAT Climate Change domains of emissions from agrifood systems. Data are computed following the Tier 1 methods of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Guidelines for National greenhouse gas (GHG) Inventories (IPCC, 1996; 1997; 2000; 2002; 2006; 2014). Emissions from other economic sectors as defined by the IPCC are also disseminated in the domain for completeness.
