Definition & method
Territorial fossil-fuel and industrial CO₂ emissions, excluding land-use change. Original OWID country-year co2 field; no unit conversion.
Annual total emissions of carbon dioxide (CO₂), excluding land-use change, measured in million tonnes.
What to keep in mind
- Territorial emissions exclude land-use change and emissions embedded in imported goods.
- Values are in million tonnes; this is not CO₂-equivalent for all greenhouse gases.
- Historical estimates can be revised.
