Northern Mariana Islands - Greenhouse gas emissions
Total greenhouse gas emissions (% change from 1990)
The value for Total greenhouse gas emissions (% change from 1990) in Northern Mariana Islands was 144.10 as of 2012. As the graph below shows, over the past 21 years this indicator reached a maximum value of 144.10 in 2012 and a minimum value of 6.59 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.
