Analysis
Bangladesh recorded 3,540 kt for ippu — emissions in 2023.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 1.7% on the previous year and up 54.6% over ten years.
Over the whole period, ippu — emissions in Bangladesh peaked at 4,150 kt in 2005 and was at its lowest, 108 kt, in 1961.
That places Bangladesh 72nd out of 232 countries with data for 2023, putting it 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
The FAOSTAT domain on Emissions Totals summarizes the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions disseminated in the FAOSTAT Climate Change domains of emissions from agrifood systems. Data are computed following the Tier 1 methods of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Guidelines for National greenhouse gas (GHG) Inventories (IPCC, 1996; 1997; 2000; 2002; 2006; 2014). Emissions from other economic sectors as defined by the IPCC are also disseminated in the domain for completeness.
