The state of Yemen's industrial emissions

Across the 8 Yemen industrial facilities with an estimated CO₂ figure (Climate TRACE), total emissions are about 3.3 Mt CO₂e/yr. The single largest emitter, Musaymir Cement Plant (cement), accounts for about 27% of that. The biggest sectoral share comes from cement. Among facilities with a known operator, the top three — Yemen General Corporation for Cement Industry and Marketing, National Cement Co, Arabian Yemen Cement Co Ltd — account for roughly 81%. Most of these facilities sit in a arid Köppen climate zone.
