Analysis

The most recent figure for methane emissions, per unit of gdp in Vietnam is 0.0002 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per US$ of GDP, measured in 2024. That is the lowest value across all 40 years on record.

Compared with earlier readings it is down 8.5% on the previous year and down 51.3% over ten years.

Over the whole period, methane emissions, per unit of gdp in Vietnam peaked at 0.0084 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per US$ of GDP in 1989 and was at its lowest, 0.0002 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per US$ of GDP, in 2024.

That places Vietnam 84th 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.
