Topics Environment CO2 Emissions from Fossil-fuel

China is the top country by CO2 emissions from fossil-fuels in the world. As of 2022, CO2 emissions from fossil-fuels in China was 10,550 million tonnes that accounts for 31.75% of the world's CO2 emissions from fossil-fuels. The top 5 countries (others are the United States of America, India, Russian Federation, and Japan) account for 61.68% of it.
