Pre- and post-production — Emissions (CO2eq) from F-gases over time
- China
- OECD
How they compare
OECD currently reports 162,207 kt against 102,825 kt in China, a difference of 59,382 kt.
That makes OECD's figure about 1.6 times China's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 34 shared years of data; in 1990 it was OECD ahead.
China ranks 2nd and OECD ranks 1st of 191 countries.
OECD has averaged higher in every one of the 4 decades both report.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | China | OECD | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 15,249 kt | 22,041 kt | 6,792 kt | OECD |
| 2000s | 15,220 kt | 78,032 kt | 62,812 kt | OECD |
| 2010s | 72,229 kt | 150,036 kt | 77,807 kt | OECD |

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.
