Analysis

In 2024, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions (total) excluding lulucf in Colombia stood at 78.7%. That is the highest value across all 34 years on record.

Compared with earlier readings it is up 5.8% on the previous year and up 32.0% over ten years.

Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions (total) excluding lulucf in Colombia peaked at 78.7% in 2024 and was at its lowest, 3.4%, in 1991.

That places Colombia 122nd out of 202 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.

Change of emissions (as %) of current year with respect to emissions in baseline year 1990 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). Negative values indicate that the emission level for that year is lower than the emissions level in 1990.
