Including a 9.1% year-on-year decrease in 2020, overall carbon monoxide emissions have decreased by 72.5% since 2000 to 1.3 Mt. While the largest decreases in CO emissions since 2000 have come from the transport sector, emissions from the energy sector have fluctuated since 2010, resulting in a 0.4% annual average increase in emissions to 2019. In 2020, only CO emissions from industrial sites increased – by 1.5% to 112.8 kt.
