Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions (total) excluding LULUCF in Gabon, 1970–2024
Source: EDGAR (Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research) Community GHG Database, Joint Research Centre (JRC) - European Commission. Measured in Mt CO2e.
Analysis
In 2024, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions (total) excluding lulucf in Gabon stood at 0.4788 Mt CO2e.
The figure is up 3.9% on the previous year and up 5.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions (total) excluding lulucf in Gabon peaked at 0.8965 Mt CO2e in 1988 and was at its lowest, 0.0882 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places Gabon 143rd out of 203 countries with data for 2024, putting it 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 nitrous oxide (N2O), 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).
