Analysis
In 2024, per capita nitrous oxide emissions in Croatia stood at 0.5482 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per person.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 1.9% on the previous year and up 7.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, per capita nitrous oxide emissions in Croatia peaked at 0.8173 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per person in 1984 and was at its lowest, 0.0653 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents per person, in 1903.
That places Croatia 44th out of 201 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
