Air emissions - Greenhouse gas emissions Inventories

This dataset presents trends in man-made emissions of major greenhouse gases and emissions by gas. Data refer to total emissions of CO₂ (emissions from energy use and industrial processes, e.g. cement production), CH₄(methane emissions from solid waste, livestock, mining of hard coal and lignite, rice paddies, agriculture and leaks from natural gas pipelines), nitrous oxide (N₂O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), sulphur hexafluoride (SF₆) and nitrogen trifluoride (NF₃). Data exclude indirect CO₂. For UNCCCC Annex I countries, data follow the IPCC 2006 guidelines. Territories' coverage are as those defined in the Kyoto Protocol.
