Analysis
Niger recorded 3.21 Mt CO2e for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions (total) excluding lulucf in 2024.
The figure is up 1.6% on the previous year and up 46.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions (total) excluding lulucf in Niger peaked at 3.22 Mt CO2e in 2022 and was at its lowest, 0.2067 Mt CO2e, in 1971.
Niger ranks 146th of 203 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 agriculture, energy, waste, and industrial sectors, excluding LULUCF. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
