Analysis

Honduras recorded 3.39 billion tonnes for cumulative co₂ emissions from land-use change in 2024. That is the highest value across all 175 years on record.

The figure is up 0.4% on the previous year and up 4.5% over ten years.

Over the whole period, cumulative co₂ emissions from land-use change in Honduras peaked at 3.39 billion tonnes in 2024 and was at its lowest, 8.90 million tonnes, in 1850.

That places Honduras 47th out of 197 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.
