Analysis
Somalia recorded -2,566 kt for forestland — emissions (co2eq) in 2023. That is the lowest value across all 34 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 5,815.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, forestland — emissions (co2eq) in Somalia peaked at 147,927 kt in 2016 and was at its lowest, -2,566 kt, in 2021.
That places Somalia 168th out of 218 countries with data for 2023, putting it in the bottom quarter.
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.
