Analysis
In 2023, waste — emissions (co2eq) in Somalia stood at 2,651 kt. That is the highest value across all 63 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 2.9% on the previous year and up 33.9% over ten years.
Over the whole period, waste — emissions (co2eq) in Somalia peaked at 2,651 kt in 2023 and was at its lowest, 341.14 kt, in 1961.
That places Somalia 88th out of 197 countries with data for 2023, 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
The FAOSTAT domain on Emissions Totals summarizes the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions disseminated in the FAOSTAT Climate Change domains of emissions from agrifood systems. Data are computed following the Tier 1 methods of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Guidelines for National greenhouse gas (GHG) Inventories (IPCC, 1996; 1997; 2000; 2002; 2006; 2014). Emissions from other economic sectors as defined by the IPCC are also disseminated in the domain for completeness.
