Annual CO2 Emissions from Fossil Fuels

Carbon emissions growth over the years has been sky-rocketing, and net-zero goals have started to become adopted across the world to try and mitigate environmental impacts.

The emissions discussed are production-based CO2, indicating the country of production rather than where the emissions-generating goods and services are ultimately consumed.

China stands as the largest global emitter, producing nearly 10 billion tonnes of CO2 annually, surpassing one-quarter of the world's total emissions.
