Growth in oil use, particularly aviation, and coal use are behind most of the increase in 2022. CO 2 emissions from oil use are expected to grow 2.2% [0.9% to 3.2%], primarily due to an increase in international aviation, but oil use remains below 2019 levels and have not fully recovered from the COVID19 pandemic in 2020.
