Analysis
Brazil recorded 2.08 billion for co2 fossil plus land use in 2024.
The figure is down 0.2% on the previous year and up 11.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, co2 fossil plus land use in Brazil peaked at 3.34 billion in 2003 and was at its lowest, 35.22 million, in 1856.
That places Brazil 5th out of 194 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.
