Fresh off the press is IATA (International Air Transport Association) much anticipated Global Greenhouses gas emissions chart which shows how much various parts of the global economy generate of all the greenhouse gases. A great piece of research to focus our minds.
Greenhouse gases (GHG) include not only carbon dioxide (CO2) but also methane (CH4), nitrous oxides (NOx), and others. How much various parts of the global economy generate of all the greenhouse gases can be seen in the chart.
This quarterly picture of emissions also shows the significant but still visually rather muted impact of the Covid-19 crisis in the first and second quarters (Q1 and Q2) of 2020.
