    This graph will shed some light on tendencies. The downfall started per 2010 when new policy and new (greener) measures were implemented. 1990 seems to be the year of reference. Note also that the downfall is accompanied by BNP growth iirc.

    And also In 2022 the emission of greenhouse gasses was 7,9 percent lower than in 2021. This is mainly due to the high prices of natural gas.
