Analysis
In 2024, cumulative co₂ emissions in Haiti stood at 88.84 million tonnes. That is the highest value across all 155 years on record.
The figure is up 3.5% on the previous year and up 53.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, cumulative co₂ emissions in Haiti peaked at 88.84 million tonnes in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0 tonnes, in 1870.
That places Haiti 149th out of 215 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.
