Analysis
The most recent figure for per capita co₂ emissions including land-use change in Armenia is 2.51 tonnes per person, measured in 2024.
The figure is down 1.4% on the previous year and up 17.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, per capita co₂ emissions including land-use change in Armenia peaked at 3.77 tonnes per person in 1939 and was at its lowest, 0.1485 tonnes per person, in 1925.
That places Armenia 121st out of 194 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
