Analysis
In 2024, territorial and consumption-based co₂ emissions in Kazakhstan stood at 287.01 million tonnes.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 0.3% on the previous year and down 4.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, territorial and consumption-based co₂ emissions in Kazakhstan peaked at 329.57 million tonnes in 2018 and was at its lowest, 973 tonnes, in 1832.
That places Kazakhstan 21st out of 215 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top 10%.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
