Analysis
In 2024, cumulative co₂ emissions including land-use change in Honduras stood at 3.58 billion tonnes. That is the highest value across all 155 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 0.7% on the previous year and up 7.7% over ten years.
Over the whole period, cumulative co₂ emissions including land-use change in Honduras peaked at 3.58 billion tonnes in 2024 and was at its lowest, 3.44 million tonnes, in 1870.
That places Honduras 73rd out of 194 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.
