Analysis

The most recent figure for cumulative co₂ emissions including land-use change in Hungary is 5.76 billion tonnes, measured in 2024. That is the highest value across all 174 years on record.

That represents a change of up 0.5% on the previous year and up 7.0% over ten years.

Over the whole period, cumulative co₂ emissions including land-use change in Hungary peaked at 5.76 billion tonnes in 2024 and was at its lowest, 15.24 million tonnes, in 1851.

Hungary ranks 57th of 194 countries on this measure, in the middle of the range.

The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
