Analysis
Macao recorded 1.73 Mt CO2e for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions (total) excluding lulucf in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 3.2% on the previous year and down 17.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions (total) excluding lulucf in Macao peaked at 2.89 Mt CO2e in 2017 and was at its lowest, 0.3034 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places Macao 153rd out of 203 countries with data for 2024, putting it 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 agriculture, energy, waste, and industrial sectors, excluding LULUCF. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
