Analysis
Uzbekistan recorded -791,204 tonnes for annual co₂ emissions from land-use change in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 11.2% on the previous year and up 63.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, annual co₂ emissions from land-use change in Uzbekistan peaked at 21.04 million tonnes in 1959 and was at its lowest, -4.00 million tonnes, in 2012.
That places Uzbekistan 165th out of 197 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.
