According to European Commission data, Indonesia's greenhouse gas emissions in 2022 reached 1.24 gigatons of carbon dioxide equivalent (Gt CO2e). This figure is substantial on both a global and Southeast Asian scale.

However, on a per capita basis, Indonesia's emissions are relatively low at 4.47 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (tCO2e)/capita/year.

Brunei Darussalam has the highest per capita emissions in Southeast Asia, at 32.66 tCO2e/capita/year.

Brunei's annual per capita emissions are approximately seven times higher than Indonesia's, ranking 7th highest globally in per capita emissions.

However, due to its small population, Brunei's cumulative emissions are very small, contributing only 0.03% to total global greenhouse gas emissions.

A similar situation exists in Singapore. Although Singapore's per capita emissions are high, its cumulative contribution is very small, accounting for only 0.13% of total global emissions.

In 2022, Indonesia contributed approximately 2.3% to total global greenhouse gas emissions, placing it among the top 10 major emitters.

The greenhouse gas emissions recorded by the European Commission are a combination of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and fluorinated gases (F gases).

This data only includes emissions from the electricity generation, transportation, industrial energy combustion, agriculture, fossil fuel exploitation (mining, production, and processing), industrial processes (such as cement production, metal processing, chemical products, etc.), non-industrial building energy combustion, and waste sectors.

Emissions from the forestry and land use sector, or land use, land-use change, and forestry (LULUCF), are not included.
