Analysis
The most recent figure for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from transport (energy) in Lebanon is 0.0426 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024.
The figure is up 0.5% on the previous year and down 22.4% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from transport (energy) in Lebanon peaked at 0.116 Mt CO2e in 1998 and was at its lowest, 0.0099 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places Lebanon 108th out of 194 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.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the transportation sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.3.a Civil Aviation, 1.A.3.b_noRES Road Transportation no resuspension, 1.A.3.c Railways, 1.A.3.d Water-borne Navigation, 1.A.3.e Other Transportation. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
