Analysis

Congo recorded 0.03 t CO2eq/cap for other — emissions per capita in 2023. That is the lowest value across all 34 years on record.

The figure is down 25.0% on the previous year and down 40.0% over ten years.

Over the whole period, other — emissions per capita in Congo peaked at 0.23 t CO2eq/cap in 1993 and was at its lowest, 0.03 t CO2eq/cap, in 2002.

That places Congo 47th out of 218 countries with data for 2023, putting it in the top quarter.
