Carbon trading

Emissions embedded in trade

Methodology: Annual net carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions embedded in trade, measured as a percentage of production-based emissions of CO2. Net CO2 emissions embedded in trade is the net amount of CO2 that is imported or exported via goods traded with an economy. A positive value denotes a country or region that is a net importer of CO2 emissions; a negative value indicates that a country is a net exporter.
