While emissions from the land sector decreased 80% between 2005 and 2016, Queensland is the largest source of this type of emission in Australia.

Emissions from the waste sector increased 17% between 2005 and 2016, however waste emissions have fallen since 2011 due to increased capture and combustion of landfill gas.

Emissions from the transport sector increased 26% between 2005 and 2016. Road transport, including passenger cars, was the main source of emissions at 10.1 MtCO₂e in 2016.

While Queensland’s greenhouse gas emissions have decreased by 15% between 2005 and 2016, the state was the largest source of emissions in 2016 of all Australian...

Emissions from the industrial processes sector increased 11% between 2005 and 2016 due largely to increased use of replacements for ozone-depleting substances.

Total fugitive emissions increased 79% between 2005 and 2016 in line with growing coal and gas production.

Emissions from the agriculture sector decreased 6% between 2005 and 2016, mainly due to a decline in livestock numbers.

Emissions from the waste sector increased 15% between 2005 and 2014, however waste emissions have fallen since 2011 due to increased capture and combustion of landfill gas.
