According to European Commission data, the average greenhouse gas emissions produced by the global community in 2023 reached 6.59 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2eq) per capita per year.

The volume increased by 0.9% compared to 2022 (year-on-year/yoy), reaching the highest level since the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020.

Although per capita emissions in 2023 were slightly lower than in 2017-2019 before the pandemic hit, cumulative global emissions increased significantly due to the growing world population.

The total volume of global greenhouse gas emissions in 2023 reached 52,962 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (Mt CO2eq), up 1.9% (yoy) and setting a new all-time high.

"In 2023, emissions increased in all sectors, with the transport sector showing the largest increase," said the European Commission in its report *GHG Emissions of All World Countries 2024*.

The greenhouse gas emissions recorded by the European Commission are a combination of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and fluorinated gases (F gases).

The data only includes emissions from the electricity generation, transport, industrial energy combustion, agriculture, fossil fuel exploitation (mining, production, and processing), industrial processes (such as cement production, metal processing, chemical products, etc.), non-industrial building energy combustion, and waste sectors.

Greenhouse gas emissions from the forestry and land use, land-use change, and forestry (LULUCF) sector are not included.
