Rankings

Definition

Total greenhouse gas emissions excluding LULUCF and international aviation and shipping (ghg_emissions_total), in tonnes of CO2 equivalent, divided by the population on 1 January of the same year.

Emissions are counted where they occur, so countries that export energy or heavy industry products show higher values than their consumption alone would cause.

How it is calculated

Invokely calculation: EEA total greenhouse gas emissions excluding LULUCF (Eurostat env_air_gge, million tonnes of CO2 equivalent) times 1,000,000, divided by the Eurostat population on 1 January of the same year (demo_r_pjanaggr3).
