Analysis
Grenada recorded 3.58 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per person for per capita greenhouse gas emissions, excluding land use and forestry in 2024. That is the highest value across all 175 years on record.
That represents a change of up 3.4% on the previous year and up 46.7% over ten years.
Over the whole period, per capita greenhouse gas emissions, excluding land use and forestry in Grenada peaked at 3.58 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per person in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.1614 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per person, in 1940.
That places Grenada 101st out of 198 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.
