Short summary
In this study, we developed a new global emission inventory for non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOC) for the period of 1970–2020, with a focus on improving the representation of NMVOC-emission-related technologies. Our analysis revealed that activity growth, technology advancements, and policy-driven emission controls were key driving forces of NMVOC emission changes, but their roles were different across sectors and regions.
