The state of Bolivia's industrial emissions

Across the 9 Bolivia industrial facilities with an estimated CO₂ figure (Climate TRACE), total emissions are about 2.7 Mt CO₂e/yr. The single largest emitter, Viacha Cement Plant (cement), accounts for about 26% of that. The biggest sectoral share comes from cement. Among facilities with a known operator, the top three — Empresa Productiva Cementos de Bolivia, Sociedad Boliviana de Cemento SA, Cooperativa Boliviana de Cemento, Industrias y Servicios Ltda — account for roughly 83%. Most of these facilities sit in a arid Köppen climate zone.
