Since 1990, the UK’s greenhouse gas emissions have reduced by 44% while the economy has grown by around 75% up until 2019. [10] One of the methods of reducing emissions is the UK Emissions Trading Scheme. [11] Meeting future carbon budgets will require reducing emissions by at least 3% a year.

The US, China and Russia have cumulatively contributed the greatest amounts of CO 2 since 1850. [ 3] This is a list of sovereign states and territories by carbon dioxide emissions[ n 1] due to certain forms of human activity, based on the EDGAR database created by European Commission and Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency.

Successive UK governments have outlined numerous commitments to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. One such announcement was the Low Carbon Transition Plan launched by the Brown ministry in July 2009, which aimed to generate 30% electricity from renewable sources, and 40% from low-carbon content fuels by 2020.

The following table lists the 1970, 1990, 2005, 2017 and 2022 annual GHG [n 1] emissions estimates (in kilotons of CO 2 equivalent per year) along with a list of calculated emissions per capita (in metric tons of CO 2 equivalent per year). The data include carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide from all sources, including agriculture and land use change.
Reduced spending on eating out, transport and clothing were some of the biggest drivers behind a 10% fall in the amount of CO2 produced by households.
