Fossil carbon dioxide emissions in Colombia reached almost two metric tons per capita in 2023, up from 1.8 tons per person a year earlier. This was the highest figure recorded in the period in consideration. Colombia remains one of the countries with the lowest fossil CO₂ emissions per capita in Latin America and the Caribbean.
