Global greenhouse gas emissions are on the decline with 50 countries peaking total GHG emissions by 2015. Additionally, 60 countries peaked fossil CO2 emissions by 2015, signaling a near peak and permanent decline in global CO2 emissions as Zero-Carbon technology replaces traditional fossil fuels. A report reveals that 57 companies were responsible for 80% of global CO2 emissions between 2016 and 2022, with 38% from nation-states, 37% from state-owned entities, and 25% from investor-owned companies. The top 15 carbon emitters from 1850 to 2022 include China, the United States, India, the Middle East, Russia, Japan, Iran, Germany, and the Shipping sector.

57 companies were responsible for 80% of the global carbon dioxide emissions between 2016 and 2022. 38% of total emissions during this period came from nation-states, 37% from state-owned entities and 25% from investor-owned companies, per Carbon Majors Database.
50 countries peaked total GHG emissions by 2015! 60 countries peaked fossil CO2 emissions on a territorial basis by 2015. Global CO2 emissions are near peak and permanent decline, as Zero-Carbon tech replaces burning oil, gas and coal. Wonderful! https://t.co/ocS2cIYy4L https://t.co/SavZ1L9mNt
American greenhouse gas emissions rose 1 percent between 2021 and 2022 but fell nearly 17 percent from 2005 levels, according to the Environmental Protection Agencyโs (EPA) annual emissions inventory report. https://t.co/bp5Xzt6FmD
