Analysis

Mongolia recorded 63.54 Mt CO2e for total greenhouse gas emissions including lulucf in 2023. That is the highest value across all 24 years on record.

Compared with earlier readings it is up 42.7% on the previous year and up 199.1% over ten years.

Over the whole period, total greenhouse gas emissions including lulucf in Mongolia peaked at 63.54 Mt CO2e in 2023 and was at its lowest, -4.88 Mt CO2e, in 2004.

That places Mongolia 65th out of 176 countries with data for 2023, putting it in the middle of the range.

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

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 sulphur hexafluoride (SF6)) from the energy, industry, waste, agriculture, and land use, land use changes, and forestry (LULUCF) sectors, standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
