European Union Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions 1990-2024
Total greenhouse gas emissions in kt of CO2 equivalent are composed of CO2 totals excluding short-cycle biomass burning (such as agricultural waste burning and Savannah burning) but including other biomass burning (such as forest fires, post-burn decay, peat fires and decay of drained peatlands), all anthropogenic CH4 sources, N2O sources and F-gases (HFCs, PFCs and SF6).
- European Union greenhouse gas (ghg) emissions for 2020 was 3,118,549.14, a 8.21% decline from 2019.
