Analysis
Italy recorded 301.93 million tonnes for carbon dioxide emissions by income level, gaps filled in 2024.
The figure is down 3.3% on the previous year and down 13.6% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide emissions by income level, gaps filled in Italy peaked at 501.37 million tonnes in 2005 and was at its lowest, 29,312 tonnes, in 1860.
That places Italy 19th out of 215 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top 10%.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
