Greenhouse gas emissions: Regions GHG emissions from power over time
- Australia
- Italy
How they compare
Australia currently reports 156.19 million Tonnes of CO2-equivalent against 84.70 million Tonnes of CO2-equivalent in Italy, a difference of 71.49 million Tonnes of CO2-equivalent.
That makes Australia's figure about 1.8 times Italy's.
The two have swapped places 6 times across 54 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Australia ahead.
Australia ranks 9th and Italy ranks 11th of 47 countries.

About this data
This dataset provides indicators on greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) in large (TL2) and small (TL3) regions. Data definition and source GHG are estimated by sector of origin at the subnational level using the Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research (EDGAR) (Joint Research Centre). See the methodology. Definition of regions Regions are subnational units below national boundaries. OECD countries have two regional levels: large regions (territorial level 2 or TL2) and small regions (territorial level 3 or TL3). For more information, see the OECD Territorial grid (pdf) and the OECD Territorial Correspondence Table (xlsx). Cite this dataset OECD Regions, Cities and Local Areas database http://oe.cd/geostats.
