This is a list of U.S. states and territories by carbon dioxide emissions for energy use, [1] [2] as well as per capita [3] [4] and by area. [5] The state with the highest total carbon dioxide emissions is Texas and the lowest is Vermont. The state with the highest per capita carbon dioxide emissions is Wyoming and the lowest is New York.
The following table lists the annual CO 2 emissions estimates (in kilotons of CO 2 per year) for the year 2023, as well as the change from the year 2000. [4] The data only consider carbon dioxide emissions from the burning of fossil fuels and cement manufacture, but not emissions from land use, land-use change and forestry.
English: The variwide chart allows the visualization of a multitude of data dimensions in one easy-to-read diagram. These data dimensions are: - Individual country data, such as China, South Africa, or the USA, or a group of countries such as the Middle East, Africa, or Australia/New Zealand, - Population by country or group of countries, - Per capita GHG emissions, and - GHG emissions growth ...

Annual CO 2 emissions, total by country (2017 data) shows the U.S. trails China in total annual emissions (not per capita). Environmental issues in the United States include climate change, energy, species conservation, invasive species, deforestation, mining, nuclear accidents, pesticides, pollution, waste and over-population. Despite taking ...
The N.C. Division of Air Quality will ask the U.S. EPA to approve a plan to end annual emissions inspections in 18 of the 19 counties where it is still required.
In 2020, 27% of the GHG emissions of the United States were from transportation, 25% from electricity, 24% from industry, 13% from commercial and residential buildings and 11% from agriculture. [13] U.S. energy-related CO2 emissions decreased by 3% in 2023, amounting to a reduction of approximately 134 million metric tons (MMmt).
Stricter air emission standards could cause Palm Beach County to shutter its billion-dollar waste-to-energy (WTE) plants, forcing it instead to truck its waste to landfills outside the county.
