📈Power sector emissions increased 0.44%

📉Fossil fuel operations emissions declined 1.88%

📈Transportation sector emissions increased 3.6%
October 30, 2025 at 5:27 PM
Total global year-to-date emissions are 41.09 Bt through August, which is 0.3% higher than 2024’s year-to-date total for the same timeframe.
October 30, 2025 at 5:27 PM
New global emissions data are in for August 2025, showing a total 5.16 Bt of CO2e emitted, which represents a 0.4% increase compared to August 2024.

SECTOR CHANGES H1 2025:

📈The fossil fuel sector had the biggest increase in emissions in H1 2025, rising 1.5% — with more than half of the increase coming from the United States.

📉The power sector had the biggest decline in emissions, dropping 0.8%.
August 28, 2025 at 10:49 PM
For the first half of 2025, global emissions reached 31 Bt of CO2e, a 0.13% increase compared to the first half of 2024.
August 28, 2025 at 10:49 PM
NEW DATA: Emissions data through June 2025 are live on Climate TRACE, showing a clear picture of the first half of 2025 global emissions. June 2025 emissions totaled 5.12 Bt CO2e, a 0.29% increase compared to June 2024.

How about the other GHG emissions from agriculture?
→ Methane emissions in 2024 reached 147.7Mt.
→ Nitrous oxide emissions totaled 6.0Mt.
August 20, 2025 at 8:17 PM
Looking at carbon dioxide alone, global #agriculture #emissions reached 2.3Bt in 2024.
August 20, 2025 at 8:17 PM
Switching to a 20-year time horizon view for CO2e, you can get a better understanding of near-term warming impacts of agriculture emissions. In 2024 global agriculture emissions reached 15.7Bt CO2e20.
August 20, 2025 at 8:17 PM
A commonly viewed metric is CO2 equivalent (CO2e) 100-year. CO2e provides a unified metric to view the emissions impact of all major GHGs. In 2024 agriculture emissions totaled 7.9Bt CO2e100.
