Analysis
India recorded 0.052 kt per square kilometre for pre- and post-production — emissions (co2), per square kilometre in 2023.
The figure is down 0.5% on the previous year and up 9.9% over ten years.
Over the whole period, pre- and post-production — emissions (co2), per square kilometre in India peaked at 0.0544 kt per square kilometre in 2016 and was at its lowest, 0.0081 kt per square kilometre, in 1990.
That places India 61st out of 192 countries with data for 2023, putting it in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

How this figure is calculated
Pre- and post-production — Emissions (CO2) divided by Land area (sq. km), matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Pre- and post-production — Emissions (CO2) ÷ Land area (sq. km)
Computed from
- Pre- and post-production — Emissions Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
- Land area FAOSTAT, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO)
Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
