(in million metric tons)
According to the source, these emissions reflect the sum of carbon dioxide emissions from energy, carbon dioxide emissions from flaring, methane emissions, in carbon dioxide equivalent, associated with the production, transportation, and distribution of fossil fuels, and carbon dioxide emissions from industrial processes.
