Analysis
In 2024, cumulative co₂ emissions including land-use change, gaps filled in Venezuela stood at 13.40 billion tonnes. That is the highest value across all 155 years on record.
That represents a change of up 0.9% on the previous year and up 10.7% over ten years.
Over the whole period, cumulative co₂ emissions including land-use change, gaps filled in Venezuela peaked at 13.40 billion tonnes in 2024 and was at its lowest, 22.61 million tonnes, in 1870.
That places Venezuela 32nd 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.
