Agriculture: total CO2 emissions France 2008-2018

This statistic illustrates the total volume of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in agriculture, forestry and fishing in France from 2008 to 2018. It is learned that in 2013, more than 15.1 million metric tons of CO2 were issued in this sector in France. In 2018, that number fell down to 12.65 million metric tons.

Values have been rounded.

This sector of agriculture, forestry and fishing corresponds to the A code of NACE Rev 2.

According to the Ministry of Environment, Energy and the Sea, the accumulation of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere accounts for two thirds of the increase in the greenhouse effect induced by human activities (combustion gas, oil, deforestation ...). The current CO2 emissions will have an impact on atmospheric concentrations and global temperature for decades, because its lifespan in the atmosphere is of the order of a hundred years.
