Summary
Abstract: Data on greenhouse gas emissions and removals, sent by countries to UNFCCC and
the EU Greenhouse Gas Monitoring Mechanism (EU Member States) with copies to
EEA and ETC/ACC. Data compiled and held by ETC/ACC are annual emissions of CO2,
CO2-removals, CH4, N2O, HFC-A, HFC-P, PFC-A, PFC-P, SF6-A, SF6-P from
individual countries. Sectoral data (IPCC classification) is provided for the
following main source categories: Energy, Industrial Processes, Solvent and
Other Product Use, Agriculture, Land-Use Change and Forestry, Waste, Other, CO2
emissions from Biomass, International bunkers and Multilateral Operations. From
this classification the EEA proposes a simplified classification (EEA
classification) in the categories: Energy, Industry, Transport, Agriculture,
Waste, Other.

Description: This report details greenhouse gas emissions for the 15 pre-2004 Member States
of the European Union between 1990 and 2002, both by country and by economic
sector. It shows that overall emissions fell slightly in 2002 after two years
of increase, taking the EU a small step closer to its target of an 8% reduction
between 1990 and 2008-2012.
