Analysis
Venezuela recorded 15.99 Mt CO2e for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from transport (energy) in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 9.9% on the previous year and down 69.8% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from transport (energy) in Venezuela peaked at 54.2 Mt CO2e in 2012 and was at its lowest, 10.98 Mt CO2e, in 2021.
That places Venezuela 51st out of 194 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.
The long-run direction has been consistently rising across the 55 years of available data.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the transportation sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.3.a Civil Aviation, 1.A.3.b_noRES Road Transportation no resuspension, 1.A.3.c Railways, 1.A.3.d Water-borne Navigation, 1.A.3.e Other Transportation. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
