Analysis
The most recent figure for annual greenhouse gas emissions by world region in Indonesia is 1.90 billion tonnes of CO₂ equivalents, measured in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 2.0% on the previous year and down 11.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, annual greenhouse gas emissions by world region in Indonesia peaked at 3.03 billion tonnes of CO₂ equivalents in 1997 and was at its lowest, 111.10 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents, in 1850.
That places Indonesia 6th out of 199 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top 10%.
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.
