- Australia
- Japan
How they compare
Japan currently reports 5,508 kt against 5,131 kt in Australia, a difference of 377 kt.
That makes Japan's figure about 1.1 times Australia's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 34 shared years of data; in 1990 it was Japan ahead.
Australia ranks 19th and Japan ranks 16th of 191 countries.
Across the 4 decades both report, Australia averaged higher in 2 and Japan in 2.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Australia | Japan | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 668.53 kt | 2,398 kt | 1,730 kt | Japan |
| 2000s | 1,858 kt | 877.52 kt | 980.61 kt | Australia |

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.
