Trends

Indonesia ranks 19th among fossil-fuel CO₂ emitting nations in 2006 with 91 million metric tons of carbon. Emissions from the consumption of liquid petroleum products account for 45.6% of Indonesia's 2006 fossil-fuel CO₂ emissions. Emissions from natural gas consumption and coal usage, although quite variable, have risen steadily since the early 1970s and account for 22% and 26% of Indonesia's 2006 total emissions. With a population over 220 million people, Indonesia's per capita emission rate of 0.41 metric tons of carbon in 2006 is well below the global average but has grown five-fold since the late 1960s.
