Projected GHG emissions in 2050

Projected GHG emissions in 2050

This indicator gauges whether countries are on track to reach zero emissions of four greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, methane, fluorinated gases, and nitrous oxide) by 2050. Emissions in 2050 are a linear projection of average emissions over the period 2015–2024, as a percentage of emissions in 2024. A score of 100 indicates that a country will reach zero emissions by 2050, and a score of 0 indicates that emissions will be 1.5× higher than in 2024. Data come from EDGAR and Global Carbon Budget.
