About this data
This dataset provides National Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventories by the sector of origin and National Mitigation Targets as determined by the countries. Annual country-level estimates of net emissions/removals for 215 countries are presented by six sectors, 14 sub-sectors and four gases, for the years 1970-2021. To facilitate retrieval and use, two aggregated indicators, Total GHG emissions including land-use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF) and Total GHG emissions excluding land-use, land-use change and forestry are presented in addition to the sector-level information. Annual country-level projections of emissions, assuming business-as-usual, are presented for three categories – CO2 emission, GHG emissions excluding LULUCF and GHG emissions including LULUCF – for the years 2022- 2030. National mitigation targets, or the implied targets, as estimated from the Nationally Determined Contributions are presented for the year 2030. Both the conditional, where applicable, and unconditional targets have been presented, along with an average of the two targets. Corresponding aggregates are presented for the above indicators by region and sub-region according to the M49 and the World Economic Outlook Classifications. Estimates of emissions are in million metric tons of CO2 equivalent.
