Analysis
Turkmenistan recorded 118.34 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents for annual greenhouse gas emissions by world region in 2024.
The figure is down 10.8% on the previous year and up 21.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, annual greenhouse gas emissions by world region in Turkmenistan peaked at 139.30 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents in 2022 and was at its lowest, 4.71 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents, in 1850.
Turkmenistan ranks 53rd 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.
