Carbon dioxide (CO 2) is the most important greenhouse gas, but not the only one – gases such as methane and nitrous oxide are also drivers of global warming. Carbon dioxide-equivalents (CO 2 eq) try to sum all of the warming impacts of the different greenhouse gases together to give a single measure of total greenhouse gas emissions.
Emissions in the EU Greenhouse gas emissions worldwide Global COâ‚‚ emissions change 1990-2022, by country. Change in carbon dioxide emissions in selected countries worldwide from 1990 to 2022.
The European Commission, the EU executive body, set out in painstaking detail how the bloc’s 27 countries can meet their collective goal to reduce net greenhouse gas emissions by 55% from 1990 levels by 2030 – a step towards “net zero” emissions by 2050. This will mean raising the cost of emitting carbon for heating, transport and
Carbon dioxide emissions embodied in international trade. The OECD Inter-Country Input-Output (ICIO) database, when combined with statistics on CO 2 emissions from fuel combustion and other industry statistics, can be used to estimate demand-based carbon dioxide emissions. That is, the distribution across economies of final demand ( household
While it was part of the EU, the UK's target for 2020 was a reduction of 16% on 2005 emissions. The UK easily achieved this. In fact, right now, Britain's total output of warming gases has gone
