Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Waste in Spain, 1970–2024
Source: EDGAR (Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research) Community GHG Database, Joint Research Centre (JRC) - European Commission. Measured in Mt CO2e.
Analysis
The most recent figure for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from waste in Spain is 0 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024. That is the lowest value across all 55 years on record.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from waste in Spain peaked at 0.0901 Mt CO2e in 1990 and was at its lowest, 0 Mt CO2e, in 2006.
Spain ranks 91st of 100 countries on this measure, in the bottom quarter.
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 waste sector. This includes emissions from solid waste (IPCC 2006 codes 4.A Solid Waste Disposal, 4.B Biological Treatment of Solid Waste, 4.C Incineration and Open Burning of Waste) and wastewater treatment (IPCC 2006 code 4.D Wastewater Treatment and Discharge). The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
