  • Emissions: Morocco emitted around 103 megatonnes CO2e in 2024, about 0.18% of the global total.
  • Per person: This equals around 2.7 tonnes per person per year, rated moderate on a scale where any level above zero adds warming.
  • Trend: Emissions fell by roughly 0.08% a year over the ten years to 2024, far slower 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: CO2 makes up 61% of emissions, methane 28%, nitrous oxide 8.4% and F-gases 2.4%.
  • Historic responsibility: Since 1851, Morocco's emissions have produced around 6,100 megatonnes CO2e of warming impact, about 0.16% of the global total. The population-weighted average was around 2.7 tonnes per person per year.
