Greenhouse Gas Emissions Decline In Aluminium Industry

Published in

2024

New data from the International Aluminium Institute (IAI) shows that, for the first time, total greenhouse gas emissions from the global aluminium sector did not grow, even though production increased.

A line graph titled "Production vs GHG Emissions (million tonnes)" from 2014 to 2023. It shows Aluminium Production rising from 86.2 to 108.2 million tonnes, with greenhouse gas emissions climbing from 1,010 to 1,380 million tonnes over the same period in the aluminium industry.
