Japan: Net Forest conversion — Emissions (CO2) — UNFCCC was 1,650 kt in 2020. ◆ Volatile
Net Forest conversion — Emissions (CO2) — UNFCCC in Japan, 1990–2020
Source: Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. Measured in kt.
Analysis
Japan recorded 1,650 kt for net forest conversion — emissions (co2) — unfccc in 2020.
The figure is up 0.9% on the previous year and down 29.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, net forest conversion — emissions (co2) — unfccc in Japan peaked at 6,692 kt in 1992 and was at its lowest, 1,277 kt, in 2003.
That places Japan 14th out of 46 countries with data for 2020, putting it in the middle of the range.
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.
