Analysis
Yemen recorded 2.55 Mt CO2e for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from building (energy) in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 0.5% on the previous year and down 48.4% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from building (energy) in Yemen peaked at 6.23 Mt CO2e in 2008 and was at its lowest, 0.1691 Mt CO2e, in 1973.
Yemen ranks 71st of 193 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
A measure of annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the building sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.4 Residential and other sectors, 1.A.5 Non-Specified. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
