Key Observations
- Carbon emissions have shown a significant upward trend, with 2023 recording the highest level at over 8 million Mg CO2e
- Tree cover loss peaked in 2023 at 12,375 hectares, nearly double the average annual loss
- Notable correlation between tree cover loss and carbon emissions, particularly evident in the spike years (2017, 2023)
- The period from 2016-2023 shows consistently higher levels of both metrics compared to earlier years
- 2010 represents the year with lowest values for both metrics in the dataset
