Lebanon: Greenhouse Gas and Air Pollutant Emissions since 2015

Climate TRACE provides greenhouse gas and air pollutant emission estimates for Lebanon, featuring annual country-level data since 2015 and monthly source-level data since 2021. The inventory tracks emissions across specific sub-sectors and gas types, derived from a global monitoring network of over 2.7 million sources.

Use Cases

• Analyzing temporal trends in Lebanon's air quality using the monthly source-level emissions data
• Comparing greenhouse gas contributions across different industrial sub-sectors using the sub-sector and gas type fields
• Identifying specific high-emission assets within Lebanon using the source-level ownership and location data

Strengths

• Includes monthly source-level resolution since 2021
• Covers both greenhouse gases and air pollutants
• Provides annual country-level data spanning from 2015

Limitations

• Data consists of estimates rather than direct measurements
• Inconsistent availability of source ownership information
