88% of global fossil fuel, cement CO2 emissions linked to 117 producers

A new report, released on April 4 by InfluenceMap using the Carbon Majors database, shows that 88% of global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuels and cement from 2016 through 2022 can be linked to 117 producers. In addition, most fossil fuel companies produced more fossil fuels in the seven years after the Paris Agreement than in the seven years before the agreement’s adoption, while more than 72% of fossil fuel and cement CO2 emissions since the industrial revolution can be traced to the 122 entities in the Carbon Majors database.
