Analysis
In 2024, total greenhouse gas emissions, excluding land use and forestry in Tajikistan stood at 13.75 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 4.1% on the previous year and up 109.2% over ten years.
Over the whole period, total greenhouse gas emissions, excluding land use and forestry in Tajikistan peaked at 14.50 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents in 1988 and was at its lowest, 89,996 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents, in 1851.
That places Tajikistan 116th 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.
