The forecast for Japan's carbon dioxide emissions, excluding land use, land-use change, and forestry, shows a steady decline from 2024 to 2028. Starting from 1025 trillion grams in 2024, emissions are projected to decrease annually, reaching 977.48 trillion grams by 2028. The annual year-on-year percentage decrease is consistent, averaging around 1.9% for each subsequent year. As of the last actual data from 2023, emissions stood just above 1025 trillion grams, highlighting a positive downward trend in emissions. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years indicates a steady reduction.
Future trends to watch include the adoption of renewable energy technologies, governmental policies on carbon emissions, and societal shifts toward sustainability. Monitoring these trends will be important for assessing Japan’s progress toward emission targets and the potential impact on economic and industrial sectors.
