Analysis
Czechia recorded 12.01 billion tonnes for cumulative co₂ emissions including land-use change in 2024. That is the highest value across all 165 years on record.
The figure is up 0.6% on the previous year and up 8.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, cumulative co₂ emissions including land-use change in Czechia peaked at 12.01 billion tonnes in 2024 and was at its lowest, 11.07 million tonnes, in 1860.
Czechia ranks 35th of 194 countries on this measure, in the top quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
