Analysis
Haiti recorded 0.0004 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per US$ of GDP for methane emissions, per unit of gdp in 2024. That is the lowest value across all 65 years on record.
That represents a change of down 19.7% on the previous year and down 35.5% over ten years.
Over the whole period, methane emissions, per unit of gdp in Haiti peaked at 0.0141 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per US$ of GDP in 1970 and was at its lowest, 0.0004 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per US$ of GDP, in 2024.
That places Haiti 55th 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.
