About this dataset
Our complete CO2 and Greenhouse Gas Emissions dataset is a collection of key metrics maintained by Our World in Data. It includes data on CO2 emissions (annual, per capita, cumulative, and consumption-based), other greenhouse gases, and energy mix.
It is compiled from a variety of secondary sources, including the Global Carbon Project's Global Carbon Budget, Jones et al.'s national contributions to climate change, and the Energy Institute's Statistical Review of World Energy, alongside auxiliary population, income group, and GDP data used to calculate per-capita and per-GDP indicators.

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions from burning fossil fuels and industrial processes. This includes emissions from transport, electricity generation, and heating, but not land-use change.
What you should know about this indicator
- Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is the primary greenhouse gas causing climate change.
- Global CO₂ emissions have stayed just below five tonnes per person for over a decade. But across countries, emissions vary widely, rising in some, falling in others.
- Fossil fuel burning is the main source of CO₂ emissions. This data includes fossil CO₂ emissions from activities such as transport, electricity generation, and heating.
- These figures don't include CO₂ emissions from changes in land use, like deforestation or reforestation.
- Emissions from international aviation and shipping are not included in the data for any individual country or region. They are only counted in the global total.
- This data is based on territorial emissions, meaning the emissions produced within a country's borders, but not those from imported goods. For example, emissions from imported steel are counted in the country where the steel is produced. To learn more and look at emissions adjusted for trade, read our article: How do CO₂ emissions compare when we adjust for trade?
- The data comes from the Global Carbon Budget. Fossil CO₂ emissions are estimated using national statistics on energy use — such as coal, oil, and gas consumption — and industrial production, particularly cement. These figures are converted into CO₂ emissions using standardized emission factors. For more details, read the Global Carbon Budget paper.
- CO₂ emissions per capita are calculated by dividing emissions by population. They represent the average emissions per person in a country or region. To learn more about how different metrics capture the distribution of CO₂ emissions, read our article: Per capita, national, historical: how do countries compare on CO2 metrics?

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) emitted per unit of primary energy consumption, measured in grams of CO₂ per kilowatt-hour.
What you should know about this indicator
- Average amount of CO₂ emitted for each unit of energy a country uses. It is calculated by dividing emissions from fossil fuels and industry by primary energy consumption.
- It reflects how carbon-intensive a country's energy is. Lower values indicate a larger role for low-carbon sources such as nuclear and renewables.

consumption_co2Annual consumption-based CO₂ emissionsmillion tonnes (Mt)1990–2024
Annual consumption-based emissions of carbon dioxide (CO₂), measured in million tonnes.
What you should know about this indicator
- Consumption-based emissions attribute the emissions generated in the production of goods and services according to where they were consumed, rather than where they were produced.
- The data is calculated by adjusting 'production-based' emissions (emissions produced domestically) for trade: Consumption-based emissions equals production-based emissions, minus emissions embedded in exports, plus emissions embedded in imports.
- If a country's consumption-based emissions are higher than its production emissions it is a net importer of carbon dioxide. If its consumption-based emissions are lower, then it is a net exporter.
- Consumption-based emissions are not available for all countries because not all countries have sufficient, high-quality trade data. But those without complete data are a small fraction (3%) of the global total.
- This data measures carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions from fossil fuels and industry and does not include emissions from land use change, deforestation, soils, or vegetation.

Global Carbon Budget (2025)
The Global Carbon Budget was established by the Global Carbon Project (GCP) to track global carbon emissions and sinks.
This dataset makes it possible to assess whether countries are making progress toward the goals of the Paris Agreement and is widely recognized as the most comprehensive report of its kind.
Since 2001, the GCP has published estimates of global and national fossil CO₂ emissions. Initially, these were simple republished data from other sources, but over time, refinements were made based on feedback and correction of inaccuracies.

Jones et al. – National contributions to climate change (2025)
A dataset describing the global warming response to national emissions CO2, CH4 and N2O from fossil and land use sources during 1851-2024.
National CO2 emissions data are collated from the Global Carbon Project (Andrew and Peters, 2025; Friedlingstein et al., 2025).
National CH4 and N2O emissions data are collated from PRIMAP-hist (HISTTP) (Gütschow et al., 2024).
We construct a time series of cumulative CO2-equivalent emissions for each country, gas, and emissions source (fossil or land use). Emissions of CH4 and N2O emissions are related to cumulative CO2-equivalent emissions using the Global Warming Potential (GWP*) approach, with best-estimates of the coefficients taken from the IPCC AR6 (Forster et al., 2021).
Warming in response to cumulative CO2-equivalent emissions is estimated using the transient climate response to cumulative carbon emissions (TCRE) approach, with best-estimate value of TCRE taken from the IPCC AR6 (Forster et al., 2021, Canadell et al., 2021). 'Warming' is specifically the change in global mean surface temperature (GMST).
The data files provide emissions, cumulative emissions and the GMST response by country, gas (CO2, CH4, N2O or 3-GHG total) and source (fossil emissions, land use emissions or the total).

How we process data
Preparing this data involves several processing steps. Depending on the data, this can include standardizing country names and world region definitions, converting units, calculating derived indicators such as per capita measures, and adding or adapting metadata such as the name or the description given to an indicator. An indicator can therefore draw on more than one source, for example when we stitch together data from different periods by different producers, or when we calculate per capita measures using population data from a second source.
