Analysis
The most recent figure for land-use change — emissions per capita in Indonesia is 0.93 t CO2eq/cap, measured in 2023.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 4,550.0% on the previous year and down 24.4% over ten years.
Over the whole period, land-use change — emissions per capita in Indonesia peaked at 10 t CO2eq/cap in 1997 and was at its lowest, 0.02 t CO2eq/cap, in 2022.
That places Indonesia 35th out of 223 countries with data for 2023, putting it in the top quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
