largest annual emitters of nitrous oxide in 2021. Agricultural activities, such as livestock farming, are the primary source of nitrous oxide emissions in Brazil.
Since 1850, Brazil has released a total of 7.5 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (GtCO2e) worth of nitrous oxide into the atmosphere. Nearly half of these emissions were released from 2000 onwards. Brazil ranked among the Cumulative nitrous oxide (N₂O) emissions in Brazil from 1850 to 2021 (in million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent)
