    The following table lists the annual CO 2 emissions estimates (in kilotons of CO 2 per year) for the year 2023, as well as the change from the year 2000. [ 4 ] The data only consider carbon dioxide emissions from the burning of fossil fuels and cement manufacture , but not emissions from land use, land-use change and forestry .

    A European study of nearly 2000 participants showed that an average person cycling 1 trip/day more and driving 1 trip/day less for 200 days a year would decrease mobility-related lifecycle CO 2 emissions by about 0.5 tonnes over a year, representing a substantial share of average per capita CO 2 emissions from transport (which are about 1.5 to ...

    Transportation accounts for 15% of emissions worldwide. [143] Over a quarter of global transport CO 2 emissions are from road freight, [144] so many countries are further restricting truck CO 2 emissions to help limit climate change. [145] Maritime transport accounts for 3.5% to 4% of all greenhouse gas emissions, primarily carbon dioxide.

    In 2022, a study showed that there are 425 fossil fuel extraction projects (coal, oil and gas) with potential CO2 emissions of more than 1 billion tonnes worldwide. The potential emissions from these projects are twice the 1.5°C carbon budget of the Paris Agreement. According to these researchers, defusing carbon bombs should be a priority for ...

  8. Emission inventory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emission_inventory

    An emission inventory (or emissions inventory [1]) is an accounting of the amount of pollutants discharged into the atmosphere.An emission inventory usually contains the total emissions for one or more specific greenhouse gases or air pollutants, originating from all source categories in a certain geographical area and within a specified time span, usually a specific year.
