Canada Greenhouse Gas and Air Pollutant Emissions, 2015-2026

Climate TRACE provides greenhouse gas and air pollutant emission estimates for Canada, featuring annual country-level data since 2015 and monthly source-level data since 2021. The inventory tracks emissions across specific sub-sectors and gas types, derived from a global monitoring network of over 2.7 million sources. It was produced by the Climate TRACE coalition and is updated through early 2026.
