Analysis
Botswana recorded 11.1 for change in the consumption of ozone-depleting substances in 2021.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 77.7% on the previous year and down 88.9% over ten years.
Over the whole period, change in the consumption of ozone-depleting substances in Botswana peaked at 337.61 in 1993 and was at its lowest, 0, in 1991.
That places Botswana 31st out of 162 countries with data for 2021, putting it in the top quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
Consumption of various controlled substances. These include Bromochloromethane (BCM), Carbon Tetrachloride (CTC), Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), Hydrobromofluorocarbons (HBFCs), Hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), Methyl Bromide (MB), Methyl Chloroform (TCA) and Other Fully Halogenated CFCs. This is measured as an index relative to emissions in the year 1986 (1986 = 100).
