Analysis
The most recent figure for energy — emissions (co2), per capita in Samoa is 0.0011 kt per person, measured in 2023.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 4.4% on the previous year and up 17.5% over ten years.
Over the whole period, energy — emissions (co2), per capita in Samoa peaked at 0.0013 kt per person in 2019 and was at its lowest, 0.0002 kt per person, in 1962.
That places Samoa 126th out of 186 countries with data for 2023, putting it in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

How this figure is calculated
Energy — Emissions (CO2) divided by Population, total, matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Energy — Emissions (CO2) ÷ Population, total
Computed from
- Energy — Emissions Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
- Population, total World Population Prospects, United Nations (UN)
Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
