"Greenhouse gas emission intensity" is a measure of emissions generated from economic activity.

Low intensity indicates a more environmentally friendly economic model. Conversely, high intensity depicts an economic model that significantly pollutes the environment with greenhouse gases.

According to European Commission data, in 2023, global greenhouse gas emission intensity reached 0.32 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2eq) per $1,000 calculated using the purchasing power parity (PPP) method.

In other words, globally averaged, every economic activity generating $1,000 in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) PPP also produces 0.32 tons of CO2eq greenhouse gas emissions.

In 2023, Indonesia's greenhouse gas emission intensity was slightly below the global average, at 0.31 tons of CO2eq per $1,000 PPP.

This figure is also relatively low compared to neighboring countries.

At the ASEAN scale, the least environmentally friendly economic model is in Laos, where emission intensity in 2023 reached 0.66 tons of CO2eq per $1,000 PPP, approximately double the global average.

Other ASEAN countries with above-average emission intensity include Cambodia, Myanmar, Vietnam, and Brunei. The rest are at or below the average, as shown in the graph.

Despite this, Indonesia's total volume of greenhouse gas emissions is the highest in ASEAN, in line with its largest population and GDP value.

The European Commission noted that in 2023, Indonesia was the 7th largest greenhouse gas emitter in the world.
