Analysis
Bhutan recorded 7.08 million tonnes for cumulative co₂ emissions from cement in 2024. That is the highest value across all 275 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 4.6% on the previous year and up 120.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, cumulative co₂ emissions from cement in Bhutan peaked at 7.08 million tonnes in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0 tonnes, in 1750.
That places Bhutan 125th out of 211 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.
