According to the 4C Carbon Outlook, recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic continues in 2022, leading to fossil co₂ emissions reaching 37.5 billion tonnes of co₂ (Gtco₂), showing a 0.9% increase over 2021 and further shrinking the remaining carbon budget to keep global warming below 1.5°C.

In this year’s 4C Carbon Outlook, we further look at the changes in emissions by fossil-fuel category, major emitting countries, and focus particularly on changes in the last three years. We additionally consider what may happen with emissions during 2023.
