Analysis
Paraguay recorded 8.03 Mt CO2e for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions (total) excluding lulucf in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 3.7% on the previous year and up 34.9% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions (total) excluding lulucf in Paraguay peaked at 8.74 Mt CO2e in 2018 and was at its lowest, 0.634 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
Paraguay ranks 120th 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).
