Analysis
In 2023, energy — emissions (co2eq) from ch4 in Cambodia stood at 1,809 kt.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 0.2% over ten years.
Over the whole period, energy — emissions (co2eq) from ch4 in Cambodia peaked at 1,826 kt in 2016 and was at its lowest, 392 kt, in 1981.
That places Cambodia 111th out of 229 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.

About this data
The FAOSTAT domain on Emissions Totals summarizes the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions disseminated in the FAOSTAT Climate Change domains of emissions from agrifood systems. Data are computed following the Tier 1 methods of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Guidelines for National greenhouse gas (GHG) Inventories (IPCC, 1996; 1997; 2000; 2002; 2006; 2014). Emissions from other economic sectors as defined by the IPCC are also disseminated in the domain for completeness.
