Analysis
Nigeria recorded 12,729 kt for pre- and post-production — emissions in 2023.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 3.0% on the previous year and up 54.9% over ten years.
Over the whole period, pre- and post-production — emissions in Nigeria peaked at 12,758 kt in 2021 and was at its lowest, 2,861 kt, in 1994.
Nigeria ranks 38th of 215 countries on this measure, in the top quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
The FAOSTAT domain on Emissions Totals summarizes the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions disseminated in the FAOSTAT Climate Change domains of emissions from agrifood systems. Data are computed following the Tier 1 methods of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Guidelines for National greenhouse gas (GHG) Inventories (IPCC, 1996; 1997; 2000; 2002; 2006; 2014). Emissions from other economic sectors as defined by the IPCC are also disseminated in the domain for completeness.
