Analysis

Peru recorded 86.93 million tonnes for annual co₂ emissions including land-use change in 2024.

Compared with earlier readings it is up 4.5% on the previous year and down 29.0% over ten years.

Over the whole period, annual co₂ emissions including land-use change in Peru peaked at 158.86 million tonnes in 2003 and was at its lowest, 7.16 million tonnes, in 1857.

That places Peru 50th 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.
