Iraq Total greenhouse gas emissions excluding LULUCF (Mt CO2e): Key Points

  • Two numbers frame this chart: 265.48 t CO2eq for Iraq's total greenhouse gas emissions excluding LULUCF in 2014, 405.17 t CO2eq in 2023. That gap works out to a 53% rise.
  • 2015-2019: leaps to 377.13 t CO2eq (+42%).
  • 2020: slips to 345.62 t CO2eq (-8%).
  • 2021-2022: keeps gaining, out to 399.17 t CO2eq (+15%).
  • 2023: flat at 405.17 t CO2eq — nothing much moves.
  • 2023: The chart closes at 405.17 t CO2eq. Over the full stretch from 2014, that's a 52.6% gain.

What This Chart Is Really Saying

The absence of a clean trend is itself informative — it suggests Iraq's underlying conditions here are unsettled or the measurement is noisy, not that nothing is happening.

Worth noting this move happens in 2020, the year lockdowns disrupted ordinary activity broadly across the world. It may or may not be the direct explanation here, but it's the most common one for a dip landing in exactly this year.

Don't skip past the 2016 outlier. A jump or drop of 18% in a single year is either a real, notable event or a break in how the underlying data was collected — both are worth knowing before you use this number.

On its own, this line shows movement, not meaning. Whether Iraq's total greenhouse gas emissions excluding LULUCF trend here is a success or a warning sign depends on context this single chart doesn't carry — comparable countries, policy changes, or a longer time horizon.

Iraq's number here, like most in this category, is built from a mix of direct measurement and statistical modeling — reliable for tracking direction, less reliable for pinning down an exact year-to-year figure.
