Analysis
Niger recorded 0.398 kt for other — emissions in 2023.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 2.5% on the previous year and up 46.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, other — emissions in Niger peaked at 0.431 kt in 2021 and was at its lowest, 0.0443 kt, in 1961.

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.
