Analysis
The most recent figure for cumulative co₂ emissions including land-use change, gaps filled in Bolivia is 7.60 billion tonnes, measured in 2024. That is the highest value across all 137 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 1.9% on the previous year and up 16.5% over ten years.
Over the whole period, cumulative co₂ emissions including land-use change, gaps filled in Bolivia peaked at 7.60 billion tonnes in 2024 and was at its lowest, -104.09 million tonnes, in 1879.
That places Bolivia 44th out of 194 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
