2018

From 1800 to 2018, carbon dioxide (CO2) increased from 283 ppmv (parts per million by volume) to 408 ppmv. Almost all of this contribution is due to human activities: 2% is emitted by industry, 6% by buildings, 14% by transportation, 24% by agriculture, and 25% by electricity and heat production.
