Slovenia, with a population of 2,087,946 and an urban population of 1,144,654, accounting for 54.82% of the total, has produced 12,549,330 tons of CO2 in 2022. This translates to a per capita CO2 emissions of 5.92 tons, indicating that each person generates approximately 5.92 tons of CO2 annually.
To assess the impact of economic activity on CO2 emissions, it is essential to consider the Carbon Intensity of GDP. In the case of Slovenia, the Carbon Intensity of GDP is 0.23 kg of CO2 per International dollar ($USD) of economic output produced.
This figure is lower than both the USA (0.3 kg) and China (0.57 kg), suggesting that Slovenia’s economic activity has a relatively lower impact on CO2 emissions compared to these countries.
Overall, Slovenia’s CO2 emissions, per capita emissions, and Carbon Intensity of GDP provide valuable insights into the country’s environmental impact and sustainability efforts.
Slovenia Total CO2 emissions by source
How much do coal, oil, gas, cement and flaring contribute to CO2 emissions in Slovenia?
