European Union emissions fell by 2.5% last year, thanks to a record deployment of renewable energy. Despite this, global energy-related CO2 emissions grew by 0.9% in 2022. Oil ranks first in emissions growing in 2022 by 2.5%, with half of the year-on-year increase coming from oil emissions coming from aviation.
