Analysis
In 2024, annual greenhouse gas emissions by world region in Honduras stood at 34.53 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents.
That represents a change of up 2.8% on the previous year and up 24.7% over ten years.
Over the whole period, annual greenhouse gas emissions by world region in Honduras peaked at 72.53 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents in 1959 and was at its lowest, 4.80 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents, in 1893.
Honduras ranks 115th 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.
