Analysis
The most recent figure for africa's development dynamics (afdd) table 25 - ghg emissions by in Nepal is 703.2 Kilotonnes of CO2-equivalent, measured in 2020. That is the highest value across all 21 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 6.5% on the previous year and up 188.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, africa's development dynamics (afdd) table 25 - ghg emissions by in Nepal peaked at 703.2 Kilotonnes of CO2-equivalent in 2020 and was at its lowest, 157.7 Kilotonnes of CO2-equivalent, in 2000.
Nepal ranks 50th of 166 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.
