• Trend: Emissions rose by around 0.59 megatonnes CO₂e a year, or 1.02% yearly, over the ten years to 2024, rather than the 4% yearly decline the world needs to limit warming to around 1.7 °C.
• What drives it: Fossil and land-use CO₂ make up around 71% of emissions, methane 21%, nitrous oxide 5% and F-gases 3.8%.
• Historic responsibility: Since 1851, Azerbaijan's emissions have produced around 4,570 megatonnes CO₂e of warming impact, around 0.12% of the global total, averaging around 6.4 tonnes per person per year across the record.
