Analysis
In 2024, annual greenhouse gas emissions by world region in Haiti stood at 11.87 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents.
The figure is down 3.1% on the previous year and down 31.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, annual greenhouse gas emissions by world region in Haiti peaked at 30.31 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents in 2009 and was at its lowest, 2.17 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents, in 1850.
Haiti ranks 142nd of 199 countries on this measure, 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
Greenhouse gas emissions are measured in tonnes of carbon dioxide-equivalents over a 100-year timescale.
