Source* World GHG Emissions Flow Chart Analysis by Ecofys. All the data are for 2010. The global estimate of 48 629 MtCO2 equivalent results from adding up all calculated data on sector level. All percentages relate to the total emission worldwide. The data for Land Use Change are subject to significant uncertainties. This chart is inspired by a previous chart of WRI, 2005 The following sources were used: IEA, 2012, CO2 emissions database Joint Research Centre, European Commission, 2011, Global Emissions EDGAR v4.2, available at http://edgar.jrc.ec.europa.eu/overview.php?v=42 CDIAC, 2012, Preliminary CO2 Emissions 2011, available at http://cdiac.ornl.gov/ftp/trends/emissions/ IEA, 2012, Energy Balances Global Carbon Project, 2012, data abailable at http://www.globalcarbonproject.org/carbonbudget/12/data.htm Greenhouse gas Total emission worldwide (2010) 48 629 MtCO2 eq Coal 25% Natural Gas 19% Oil 21% Waste 0.4% Sector 2013 Duurzaambedrijfsleven.nl designbyTeunBrouwer Direct emissions 34.6% * Greenhouse gases can arise from two sources Fossil fuel related emissions Burning fossil fuels (coal, natural gas and oil) in industry, residential sector, commercial & public sector, transport and energy supply.
