Analysis
Turkey recorded 0.0038 Mt CO2e for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from waste in 2024.
The figure is up 15.2% on the previous year and up 850.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from waste in Turkey peaked at 0.0525 Mt CO2e in 1997 and was at its lowest, 0.0004 Mt CO2e, in 2014.
Turkey ranks 48th of 100 countries on this measure, in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the waste sector. This includes emissions from solid waste (IPCC 2006 codes 4.A Solid Waste Disposal, 4.B Biological Treatment of Solid Waste, 4.C Incineration and Open Burning of Waste) and wastewater treatment (IPCC 2006 code 4.D Wastewater Treatment and Discharge). The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
