India's cumulative nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions since 1850 are equivalent to more than 14 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide (GtCO2e). Almost half of India's cumulative N2O emissions over the past two centuries have been released since 1990. The South Asian country is among the largest historical nitrous oxide emitters worldwide.
Figures were calculated by Statista according to the values provided by the source.
Includes nitrous oxide emissions from fossil fuels, industry and agricultural sources.
Nitrous oxide emissions are measured in metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO₂e), so are weighted for its 100-year global warming potential value.
