Analysis
Egypt recorded 3.9 for change in the consumption of ozone-depleting substances in 2021. That is the lowest value across all 34 years on record.
That represents a change of down 16.3% on the previous year and down 57.2% over ten years.
Over the whole period, change in the consumption of ozone-depleting substances in Egypt peaked at 123.08 in 1993 and was at its lowest, 3.9, in 2021.
Egypt ranks 63rd of 162 countries on this measure, 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
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).
