GHG emissions from aircrafts in the United States 1990-2020, by type

Published by Ian Tiseo, Feb 6, 2023
Domestic commercial aircrafts in the United States released 92.1 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MtCO2e) in 2020, which was a decrease of 32 percent compared with 2019 levels. This dramatic reduction was a direct result of the outbreak of COVID-19, which caused thousands of flight cancellations throughout the year. Pre-pandemic, aircraft emissions had been rising annually.
