Analysis
The most recent figure for f-gases emissions from industrial processes in Mauritania is 0.8171 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024. That is the highest value across all 35 years on record.
That represents a change of up 7.0% on the previous year and up 162.2% over ten years.
Over the whole period, f-gases emissions from industrial processes in Mauritania peaked at 0.8171 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.0001 Mt CO2e, in 1990.
That places Mauritania 87th out of 154 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
