Côte d’Ivoire, with a population of 25,716,544 and an urban population of 13,176,900, accounting for 51.24% of the total, has a GDP of $58,792,205,642. In 2022, the country produced 11,706,642 tons of CO2, resulting in a per capita CO2 emissions of 0.43 tons.
This means that, on average, each person generates approximately 0.43 tons of CO2 annually.
To assess the impact of economic activity on CO2 emissions, it is useful to examine the Carbon Intensity of GDP. In the case of Côte d’Ivoire, the Carbon Intensity of GDP is 0.20 kg of CO2 per dollar, which is lower than both the USA (0.30 kg) and China (0.57 kg).
This metric measures the amount of CO2 emissions in kilograms per International dollar ($USD) of economic output produced.
These figures highlight Côte d’Ivoire’s efforts in managing its carbon emissions, with a relatively low per capita CO2 emissions compared to other countries. However, there is still room for improvement in reducing the carbon intensity of its GDP to further mitigate the environmental impact of economic activities.
