Analysis
In 2024, total greenhouse gas emissions, excluding land use and forestry in Togo stood at 7.28 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents. That is the highest value across all 175 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 3.7% on the previous year and up 50.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, total greenhouse gas emissions, excluding land use and forestry in Togo peaked at 7.28 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalents in 2024 and was at its lowest, 140,452 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents, in 1850.
Togo ranks 139th 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.
