Analysis
Ethiopia recorded 0.001 °C for contribution to global mean surface temperature rise by gas in 2024. That is the highest value across all 174 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 2.3% on the previous year and up 26.4% over ten years.
Over the whole period, contribution to global mean surface temperature rise by gas in Ethiopia peaked at 0.001 °C in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0 °C, in 1851.
That places Ethiopia 18th out of 201 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top 10%.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
