Analysis
In 2024, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions (total) excluding lulucf in Qatar stood at 0.8371 Mt CO2e. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.
The figure is up 2.6% on the previous year and up 37.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions (total) excluding lulucf in Qatar peaked at 0.8371 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.0876 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places Qatar 133rd out of 203 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 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).
