Cold Chain F-Gas — Emissions (CO2eq) from F-gases over time
- Australia
- Southern Europe
How they compare
Southern Europe currently reports 24,792 kt against 5,131 kt in Australia, a difference of 19,661 kt.
That makes Southern Europe's figure about 4.8 times Australia's.
Across all 34 years both countries report, Southern Europe has been ahead every year.
Australia ranks 19th and Southern Europe ranks 17th of 191 countries.
Southern Europe has averaged higher in every one of the 4 decades both report.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Australia | Southern Europe | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 668.53 kt | 4,716 kt | 4,048 kt | Southern Europe |
| 2000s | 1,858 kt | 17,873 kt | 16,015 kt | Southern Europe |
| 2010s | 3,909 kt | 28,465 kt | 24,556 kt | Southern Europe |
| 2020s | 5,094 kt | 24,192 kt | 19,098 kt | Southern Europe |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

About this data
The FAOSTAT domain on Emissions from Pre- and post- agricultural production includes the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and related activity data, generated from pre- and post-agriculture production stages of the agri-food 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). The domain includes methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), carbon dioxide (CO2) and CO2 equivalent (CO2eq) emissions from the above activities as well as the aggregate fluorinated gases (F-gases) emissions. Estimates are available by country, with global coverage and are updated annually.The FAOSTAT domain disseminates information estimates of CH4, N2O, CO2 emissions, F-gases, their aggregates in CO2eq in units of kilotonnes (kt, or 10^6 kg), and the underlying activity data. CO2eq emissions are computed by using the IPCC Fifth Assessment report global warming potentials, AR5 (IPCC, 2014). Data are available for most countries and territories, for standard FAOSTAT regional aggregations, and for Annex I and non-Annex I country groups.
