Analysis
Asia recorded 271,618 kt for net forest conversion — emissions (co2eq) (ar5) — fao tier 1 in 2023.
The figure is down 15.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, net forest conversion — emissions (co2eq) (ar5) — fao tier 1 in Asia peaked at 1.20 million kt in 1992 and was at its lowest, 157,416 kt, in 2001.
That places Asia 11th out of 37 groups with data for 2023, 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.
