Total greenhouse gas emissions, excluding land use and forestry in Honduras, 1850–2024
Source: Jones et al. (2025) – with major processing by Our World in Data. Measured in tonnes of CO₂ equivalents.
Analysis
In 2024, total greenhouse gas emissions, excluding land use and forestry in Honduras stood at 17.36 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents. That is the highest value across all 175 years on record.
That represents a change of up 3.0% on the previous year and up 30.5% over ten years.
Over the whole period, total greenhouse gas emissions, excluding land use and forestry in Honduras peaked at 17.36 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents in 2024 and was at its lowest, 110,915 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents, in 1850.
That places Honduras 108th 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.

About this data
Greenhouse gas emissions are measured in tonnes of carbon dioxide-equivalents over a 100-year timescale.
