Information about indicator

Name of the indicator 13.2.2 Total greenhouse gas emissions per year
Sustainable Development Goal Goal 13. Climate action
Target 13.2 Integrate climate change measures into national policies, strategies and planning
Definition

Total greenhouse gas emissions including carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), sulfurhexafluoride (SF6) and nitrogen trifluoride (NF3).
Unit kt CO2 equivalent
Available dimensions total
Methodological explanations

Total greenhouse gas emissions from anthropogenic sources, calculated as total emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), sulfurhexafluoride (SF6) and nitrogen trifluoride (NF3) expressed in CO2 equivalents by means of common weight coefficients, so-called Global Warming Potential (GWP). In the conversion of individual greenhouse gas emissions to CO2 equivalent, GWP coefficients from the IPCC Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) for a 100-year time horizon are used.
Source of data The National Centre for Emissions Management – National Research Institute
Data availability Annual data; since 2010.
Notes

Data is reported annauly for the whole series from 1988 and it may undergo change (recalculation). Data excludes emission and absorption from the land use, change of land use and forestry sector.
