The data is now up on the site. Resolves no:
2023 Total 41.42 billion tons
The previous years figures look like they have been revised downwards now say
2022 40.83
2021 40.54
2020 38.57
2019 40.89
Trend is clearly still upwards with a dip in 2020 for covid, projection for 2024 is 41.6.
Given that according to their source 2023 was an all time high I suppose this is going to be NO.
@NicoDelon I’m a bit confused about the figures for previous years but for last year the GCB says:
The report projects that total global CO2emissions (fossil + land use change) will be 40.9 billion tonnes in 2023.
@DismalScientist Just clarifying - is this for the 2022 number, which will be published in 2023? Or the figures for 2023?
@DismalScientist ooooh ok! Going to hold off on my position then until we see OWID publish the 2022 numbers. 😄 Thank you for clarifying!
Looks like a pretty consistent upwards trend (barring 2020, which was an outlier for obvious reasons). https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/global-co2-fossil-plus-land-use?time=1990..latest&country=~OWID_WRL
