Analysis
Niger recorded 60.4 for change in the consumption of ozone-depleting substances in 2021. That is the lowest value across all 34 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 9.6% on the previous year and down 43.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, change in the consumption of ozone-depleting substances in Niger peaked at 415.33 in 1998 and was at its lowest, 60.4, in 2021.
That places Niger 8th out of 162 countries with data for 2021, putting it in the top 10%.
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).
