Analysis
Vietnam recorded 14.82 billion tonnes for cumulative co₂ emissions including land-use change, gaps filled in 2024. That is the highest value across all 133 years on record.
That represents a change of up 3.4% on the previous year and up 42.2% over ten years.
Over the whole period, cumulative co₂ emissions including land-use change, gaps filled in Vietnam peaked at 14.82 billion tonnes in 2024 and was at its lowest, 63.55 million tonnes, in 1892.
That places Vietnam 31st 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.
