Analysis
The most recent figure for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions (total) excluding lulucf in Mauritius is 4.41 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 1.9% on the previous year and up 10.4% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions (total) excluding lulucf in Mauritius peaked at 4.41 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.3065 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
Mauritius ranks 140th of 203 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 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).
