How they compare

India currently reports 1.40 billion Tonnes of CO2-equivalent against 884.60 million Tonnes of CO2-equivalent in Russian Federation, a difference of 516.49 million Tonnes of CO2-equivalent.

That makes India's figure about 1.6 times Russian Federation's.

The two have swapped places 1 time across 54 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Russian Federation ahead.

India ranks 2nd and Russian Federation ranks 3rd of 47 countries.

Across the 6 decades both report, India averaged higher in 2 and Russian Federation in 4.

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.
