DescriptionAnnual world greenhouse gas emissions, in 2005, by sector.svg
English: This pie chart shows annual world greenhouse gas emissions, in 2005, by sector. Emissions are measured as a percentage of total world carbon dioxide equivalent emissions:
Electricity and heat, 24.9%
Industry, 14.7%
Transportation, 14.3%
Agriculture, 13.8%
Land use change, 12.2%
Other fuel combustion, 8.6%
Industrial processes, 4.3%
Fugitive emissions, 4.0%
Waste, 3.2%
Emissions due to land-use change include both emissions and absorptions (i.e., processes that both add to and remove carbon from the atmosphere). Emissions due to land-use change are highly uncertain.
