Pre- and post-production — Emissions (CO2eq) from F-gases over time
- Japan
- Southern Europe
How they compare
Southern Europe currently reports 24,792 kt against 5,508 kt in Japan, a difference of 19,284 kt.
That makes Southern Europe's figure about 4.5 times Japan's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 34 shared years of data; in 1990 it was Southern Europe ahead.
Japan ranks 16th and Southern Europe ranks 18th of 191 countries.
Southern Europe has averaged higher in every one of the 4 decades both report.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Japan | Southern Europe | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 2,398 kt | 4,716 kt | 2,318 kt | Southern Europe |
| 2000s | 877.52 kt | 17,873 kt | 16,995 kt | Southern Europe |
| 2010s | 3,648 kt | 28,465 kt | 24,817 kt | Southern Europe |
| 2020s | 5,434 kt | 24,192 kt | 18,758 kt | Southern Europe |

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.
