In 2023, international aviation accounted for 1.26 percent of total global fossil carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions. International aviation's share of global fossil CO₂ emissions increased from 1.15 percent in 1990 to 1.64 percent in 2019. However, COVID-19-related disruptions to the industry caused aviation's share of emissions to decrease to less than one percent in 2020.
