Analysis
In 2024, total greenhouse gas emissions, excluding land use and forestry in Slovenia stood at 14.29 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents.
The figure is up 4.7% on the previous year and down 8.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, total greenhouse gas emissions, excluding land use and forestry in Slovenia peaked at 21.12 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents in 2008 and was at its lowest, 104,471 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents, in 1850.
Slovenia ranks 114th of 198 countries on this measure, 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.
