France’s greenhouse gas emissions declined faster than its overall carbon footprint in 2024.
Territorial emissions totalled 404 Mt CO2 equivalent, while the carbon footprint reached 563 Mt.
Although both indicators fell, imported emissions remain significant, accounting for almost half the footprint—a trend persisting since 1990 despite domestic decarbonisation progress.
