In 2024, the United States remains the leader in global demand-based CO2 emissions at 48.21 million metric tons, despite a slight decrease of 0.57% from 2023. India shows growth with a 2.55% increase, reaching 21.83 million metric tons. Russia and Brazil depict moderate growth of 0.65% and 0.64% respectively. Meanwhile, countries like France, Spain, and Sweden demonstrate a downward trend with reductions of 0.83%, 1.06%, and 0.87% respectively. Emerging economies, such as Myanmar, recorded the highest increase at 4.76%, followed by Tunisia and Costa Rica with 1.15% and 1.65% increases respectively.
Future trends to watch include continued growth in emissions from developing economies like India and Myanmar. Conversely, many advanced economies are expected to maintain or increase emissions reductions due to stringent environmental policies and advances in clean energy technologies. Close attention should be paid to policy shifts or technological breakthroughs that may influence global emissions shares significantly over the upcoming years.
