Analysis

The most recent figure for annual co₂ emissions including land-use change in Hungary is 29.27 million tonnes, measured in 2024.

The figure is down 2.8% on the previous year and down 14.8% over ten years.

Over the whole period, annual co₂ emissions including land-use change in Hungary peaked at 87.34 million tonnes in 1984 and was at its lowest, 10.91 million tonnes, in 1919.

That places Hungary 97th out of 194 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.

The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
