CO\u2082 Emitted Today, by Country
Each country’s production (territorial) CO₂ so far, projected from its population and emissions per person. The fuel burned and cement made inside its borders — not the emissions embedded in what it imports.
Worldwide, that is about 104.62 million t per day, across every country. The ranked list below is each country’s own share of that flow — tap any country for its full breakdown.

About these numbers
These are honest projections, not a live census. Each country’s yearly figure is carried forward evenly over real elapsed time (tonnesper second = the annual figure ÷ 31,556,952 seconds), the same method the headline counters on the Pulse wall use. The source is World Bank Open Data (CC-BY 4.0) (2024). The true value is known only to within a margin; this is the running estimate, and we label it as one.
