Analysis
In 2024, co₂ emissions from fossil fuels and land-use change, annual growth in Myanmar stood at -0.5964 % change on previous year.
That represents a change of down 222.3% on the previous year and down 102.4% over ten years.
Over the whole period, co₂ emissions from fossil fuels and land-use change, annual growth in Myanmar peaked at 682.14 % change on previous year in 1950 and was at its lowest, -97.53 % change on previous year, in 1946.
That places Myanmar 173rd out of 215 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the bottom quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
