Analysis
In 2023, lulucf — emissions (co2) — fao tier 1 in Americas stood at 1.11 million kt.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 2,083.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, lulucf — emissions (co2) — fao tier 1 in Americas peaked at 1.49 million kt in 2000 and was at its lowest, -55,739 kt, in 2013.
That places Americas 4th out of 37 groups with data for 2023, 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
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.
