In 2023, the greenhouse gas emissions per capita in the U.S. were estimated around 18.11 thousand kilograms. Forecasts from 2024 to 2028 indicate a consistent decline in emissions per capita, starting from 17.76 thousand kilograms in 2024 and reaching 16.36 thousand kilograms in 2028. The downward trend reflects a year-on-year reduction of approximately 2%.
The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) for the forecast period is anticipated to be negative, reinforcing the decline in per capita emissions. This suggests a strong inertia towards reducing emissions through policy interventions and technological advancements.
- Continued investment in renewable energy sources
- Implementation of stricter environmental regulations
