Rankings

Definition

Greenhouse gas emissions of a US state allocated to the transportation economic sector.

More on how it is measured
  • Cars, trucks, aircraft, ships, rail and pipelines, including their fuel and the refrigerants in vehicle air conditioning.
  • In million metric tons of CO2 equivalent: carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and fluorinated gases weighted by their 100-year global warming potentials (IPCC AR5), from the EPA inventory of US emissions by state, which allocates the national inventory to the states with the same methods for every state.
  • Emissions are counted where they occur, so electricity is counted in the state that generates it, not the state that uses it.

The six economic sectors add up to state_ghg_emissions. EPA says these estimates are not official state data: a state's own inventory can differ because it uses other methods, data or scopes. Each annual edition recalculates the whole series back to 1990.
