Analysis

Nauru recorded 4.21 kt for pre- and post-production — emissions (co2eq) in 2023.

Compared with earlier readings it is up 1.6% on the previous year and up 89.3% over ten years.

Over the whole period, pre- and post-production — emissions (co2eq) in Nauru peaked at 13.44 kt in 1990 and was at its lowest, 1.34 kt, in 2006.

That places Nauru 231st out of 248 countries with data for 2023, putting it in the bottom quarter.

The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

The FAOSTAT domain Emissions from Pre- and Post-Agricultural Production provides estimates of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and related activity data associated with pre- and post-production stages of agrifood systems. The domain includes methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), fluorinated gases (F-gases) and their aggregates expressed in carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2eq). Estimates are computed following Tier 1 methods of the IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (IPCC, 1996; 1997; 2000; 2002; 2006; 2014) and are disseminated annually.
