Also: CO2e emissions, carbon dioxide emissions, and greenhouse gas emissions.
The number of greenhouse gases, usually expressed as carbon dioxide equivalents, that an entity, organization, event, service, site, or unit emits into the atmosphere. The carbon footprint is created by, for example, burning fossil fuels or acquiring materials (logging, peat extraction).
Greenhouse gas emissions are often abbreviated as carbon emissions. Still, the term usually refers to greenhouse gases represented as carbon dioxide equivalents.
