- Southern Europe
- USSR
How they compare
USSR currently reports 6,336 kt against 5,921 kt in Southern Europe, a difference of 415 kt.
That makes USSR's figure about 1.1 times Southern Europe's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 31 shared years of data; in 1961 it was Southern Europe ahead.
Southern Europe ranks 23rd and USSR ranks 20th of 33 groups.

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.
