The Department does not estimate greenhouse gas emission changes on a monthly basis. Our latest annual emissions estimates, published in March, show estimates of total UK greenhouse gas emissions for years 1990-2017. From 2012-2017 these were as follows:

Year

2012

2013

2016

2017 (p)

UK GHG emissions (MtCO2e)

Note:

Final 2017 emissions will be published in February 2019

Provisional 2018 emissions will be published in March 2019.
