Carbon dioxide emissions from natural gas consumption in the United States totaled **** billion metric tons (GtCOâ‚‚) in 2024. U.S. natural gas emissions increased by more than ** percent between 1990 and 2024. By comparison, COâ‚‚ emissions from coal consumption more than halved during this period, falling to approximately *** MtCOâ‚‚. U.S. coal emissions have been in decline as this polluting fossil fuel's role in the U.S. power mix has been gradually replaced by cleaner energy sources - primarily natural gas.
