Brazil vs Netherlands: Greenhouse gas emissions: Regions GHG emissions from power
Greenhouse gas emissions: Regions GHG emissions from power over time
- Brazil
- Netherlands
How they compare
Brazil currently reports 48.92 million Tonnes of CO2-equivalent against 32.79 million Tonnes of CO2-equivalent in Netherlands, a difference of 16.13 million Tonnes of CO2-equivalent.
That makes Brazil's figure about 1.5 times Netherlands's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 54 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Netherlands ahead.
Brazil ranks 14th and Netherlands ranks 17th of 47 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Brazil averaged higher in 2 and Netherlands in 4.

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.
