About Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions excluding LULUCF per capita (t CO2e/capita)

Total annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the agriculture, energy, waste, and industrial sectors, excluding LULUCF, standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values divided by the economy's population. This measure excludes GHG fluxes caused by Land Use Change Land Use and Forestry (LULUCF), as these fluxes have larger uncertainties.

Indicator code: EN.GHG.CO2.PC.CE.AR5 • Category: Environment

Environmental data note: Environmental indicators like CO2 emissions often lag by 2–3 years due to the complexity of data collection. Values represent actual measured or estimated emissions, not policy targets.
