Analysis
Gambia recorded 1.86 Mt CO2e for total greenhouse gas emissions excluding lulucf in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 0.9% on the previous year and down 3.6% over ten years.
Over the whole period, total greenhouse gas emissions excluding lulucf in Gambia peaked at 2.02 Mt CO2e in 2015 and was at its lowest, 0.6052 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places Gambia 166th out of 203 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the bottom quarter.
The long-run direction has been consistently rising across the 55 years of available data.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of the six greenhouse gases (GHG) covered by the Kyoto Protocol (carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), and sulphurhexafluoride (SF6)) from the energy, industry, waste, and agriculture sectors, standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values. This measure excludes GHG fluxes caused by Land Use Land Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF), as these fluxes have larger uncertainties. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
