Analysis
The most recent figure for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from transport (energy) in IBRD only is 3,279 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.
The figure is up 1.3% on the previous year and up 18.5% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from transport (energy) in IBRD only peaked at 3,279 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 572.17 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the transportation sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.3.a Civil Aviation, 1.A.3.b_noRES Road Transportation no resuspension, 1.A.3.c Railways, 1.A.3.d Water-borne Navigation, 1.A.3.e Other Transportation. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
