Analysis

In 2024, methane emissions, per unit of gdp in Bulgaria stood at 0.0001 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per US$ of GDP. That is the lowest value across all 45 years on record.

That represents a change of down 8.2% on the previous year and down 45.8% over ten years.

Over the whole period, methane emissions, per unit of gdp in Bulgaria peaked at 0.002 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per US$ of GDP in 1991 and was at its lowest, 0.0001 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per US$ of GDP, in 2024.

That places Bulgaria 129th out of 193 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.

The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

How this figure is calculated

Methane emissions divided by GDP (current US$), matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.

Methane emissions ÷ GDP (current US$)

Computed from

  • Methane emissions Our World in Data
  • GDP Country official statistics, National Statistical Organizations and/or Central Banks

Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
