Analysis
The most recent figure for co₂ emissions from fossil fuels and land-use change in Armenia is 7.46 million tonnes, measured in 2024.
That represents a change of down 0.4% on the previous year and up 19.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, co₂ emissions from fossil fuels and land-use change in Armenia peaked at 10.86 million tonnes in 2005 and was at its lowest, 161,403 tonnes, in 1925.
That places Armenia 142nd 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.
