Gas's share of fossil CO₂

% · Global Carbon Project Global Carbon Budget, fossil CO₂ emissions, GCB fossil CO₂, gas / total, via carbondata.dev · natural gas emissions as a share of all fossil CO₂

Countries with any figure: 149
Years: 1750–2024
Compare on: 2024 128 countries
Newest year: 2024 128 countries
Every year: 1 countries
Stop before 2024: 21 countries

Statistical offices report at different speeds, so the newest year usually has fewer countries than the years before it. A country's "latest" figure elsewhere on this site can therefore be from different years for different countries; rankings only compare countries with a figure for the same year.
