Analysis
In 2024, per capita greenhouse gas emissions, excluding land use and forestry in Honduras stood at 1.6 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per person.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 1.3% on the previous year and up 9.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, per capita greenhouse gas emissions, excluding land use and forestry in Honduras peaked at 1.6 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per person in 2015 and was at its lowest, 0.2861 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per person, in 1934.
That places Honduras 137th 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.
