Analysis

The most recent figure for methane (ch4) emissions from transport (energy) in Pakistan is 0.3976 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024.

That represents a change of up 1.9% on the previous year and down 16.8% over ten years.

Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from transport (energy) in Pakistan peaked at 0.7884 Mt CO2e in 2010 and was at its lowest, 0.0148 Mt CO2e, in 1970.

That places Pakistan 14th out of 194 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top 10%.

The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
