F-gases emissions from Industrial Processes in World, 1970–2024
Source: EDGAR (Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research) Community GHG Database, Joint Research Centre (JRC) - European Commission. Measured in Mt CO2e.
Analysis
World recorded 1,510 Mt CO2e for f-gases emissions from industrial processes in 2024. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.
That represents a change of up 4.1% on the previous year and up 45.2% over ten years.
Over the whole period, f-gases emissions from industrial processes in World peaked at 1,510 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 153.34 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places World 1st out of 47 groups with data for 2024, putting it in the top 10%.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
