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 41st out of 205 countries with data for 2023, putting it in the top quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
