Bahrain: Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions per capita

The latest value from 2024 is 23.9 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita, a decline from 24.53 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita in 2023. In comparison, the world average is 4.67 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita, based on data from 189 countries. Historically, the average for Bahrain from 1970 to 2024 is 23.82 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita. The minimum value, 14.04 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita, was reached in 1971 while the maximum of 28.49 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita was recorded in 1998.

Definition: 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, Land-Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF), as these fluxes have larger uncertainties.
