Analysis
The most recent figure for total greenhouse gas emissions excluding lulucf in Macao is 1.82 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024.
The figure is up 3.2% on the previous year and down 16.2% over ten years.
Over the whole period, total greenhouse gas emissions excluding lulucf in Macao peaked at 2.98 Mt CO2e in 2017 and was at its lowest, 0.3327 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places Macao 168th 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 the six greenhouse gases (GHG) covered by the Kyoto Protocol (carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), and sulphurhexafluoride (SF6)) from the energy, industry, waste, and agriculture sectors, standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values. This measure excludes GHG fluxes caused by Land Use Land Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF), as these fluxes have larger uncertainties. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
