Global energy-related carbon dioxide emissions rose by 6% in 2021 to 36.3 The rebound of global CO 2 emissions above pre-pandemic levels has largely been driven by China, where they increased by 750 million tonnes between 2019 and 2021. In 2021 alone, China’s CO 2 emissions rose above 11.9 billion tonnes. billion tonnes.
