Total greenhouse gas emissions (kt of CO2 equivalent)

The value for Total greenhouse gas emissions (kt of CO2 equivalent) in Jordan was 35,810 as of 2018. As the graph below shows, over the past 28 years this indicator reached a maximum value of 36,740 in 2017 and a minimum value of 18,670 in 1990.

Definition: Total greenhouse gas emissions in kt of CO2 equivalent are composed of CO2 totals excluding short-cycle biomass burning (such as agricultural waste burning and Savannah burning) but including other biomass burning (such as forest fires, post-burn decay, peat fires and decay of drained peatlands), all anthropogenic CH4 sources, N2O sources and F-gases (HFCs, PFCs and SF6).

Total greenhouse gas emissions (% change from 1990)

The value for Total greenhouse gas emissions (% change from 1990) in Jordan was 134.48 as of 2012. As the graph below shows, over the past 21 years this indicator reached a maximum value of 134.48 in 2012 and a minimum value of 2.53 in 1991.

Definition: Total greenhouse gas emissions are composed of CO2 totals excluding short-cycle biomass burning (such as agricultural waste burning and Savannah burning) but including other biomass burning (such as forest fires, post-burn decay, peat fires and decay of drained peatlands), all anthropogenic CH4 sources, N2O sources and F-gases (HFCs, PFCs and SF6). Each year of data shows the percentage change to that year from 1990.
