Analysis
The most recent figure for greenhouse gas emissions by gas in Haiti is 1.63 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents, measured in 2024.
The figure is down 2.1% on the previous year and down 4.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, greenhouse gas emissions by gas in Haiti peaked at 1.75 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents in 2019 and was at its lowest, 48,271 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents, in 1850.
That places Haiti 127th out of 201 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
