Analysis
The most recent figure for pre- and post-production — emissions (co2eq) from f-gases in Europe is 73,461 kt, measured in 2023.
That represents a change of down 10.8% over ten years.
Over the whole period, pre- and post-production — emissions (co2eq) from f-gases in Europe peaked at 84,489 kt in 2014 and was at its lowest, 3,302 kt, in 1995.
That places Europe 6th out of 32 groups with data for 2023, putting it in the top quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
The FAOSTAT domain on Emissions Totals summarizes the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions disseminated in the FAOSTAT Climate Change domains of emissions from agrifood systems. Data are computed following the Tier 1 methods of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Guidelines for National greenhouse gas (GHG) Inventories (IPCC, 1996; 1997; 2000; 2002; 2006; 2014). Emissions from other economic sectors as defined by the IPCC are also disseminated in the domain for completeness.
