Key Messages

• Emissions: Montenegro emitted around 1.26 megatonnes CO₂e in 2024, accounting for 0% of the global total.
• Per person: Emissions were around 2 tonnes per person per year in 2024, rated low on a scale where any level above zero adds warming.
• Trend: Emissions rose by roughly 0.083 megatonnes CO₂e a year, or 6.3% a year, over the ten years to 2024, rather than the 4% yearly decline the world needs to achieve Net Zero in 2050 and limit warming to around 1.7 °C.
• What drives it: Methane makes up around 45% of emissions, CO₂ 37%, nitrous oxide 13% and F-gases 4.5%.
• Historic responsibility: Since 1851, Montenegro's emissions have produced around 391 megatonnes CO₂e of warming impact, about 0.01% of the global total, or around 4.8 tonnes per person per year.
