Analysis
Bangladesh recorded 123.12 million tonnes for annual co₂ emissions including land-use change, gaps filled in 2024. That is the highest value across all 79 years on record.
The figure is up 3.5% on the previous year and up 57.5% over ten years.
Over the whole period, annual co₂ emissions including land-use change, gaps filled in Bangladesh peaked at 123.12 million tonnes in 2024 and was at its lowest, 6.15 million tonnes, in 1991.
That places Bangladesh 43rd out of 194 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
