President-elect Joe Biden has promised to initiate a U.S. return to the global carbon-cutting pact his first day in office.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cWe have done more to reduce our GHG emissions over the past four years than our international competitors who cling to the ceremonial agreement,\u201d Wheeler said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\">The new data reflect emissions from nearly 8,000 large, stationary facilities &#8212; including cement plants, steel mills, oil refineries and landfills. The numbers do not cover small stationary sources that emit fewer than 25,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent annually. Nor do they cover the transportation sector, now the single biggest source of greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Large facilities in the reporting program emitted 2.85 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide or its equivalent in 2019, down from 2.99 billion metric tons in 2018.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Overall U.S. greenhouse gas emissions have been on a downward trend since 2005, a commonly used baseline.
