- Indicator id: `ghg_emissions_waste`
- Place id: `mt`
- Unit: million tonnes of CO2 equivalent
- Definition: Greenhouse gas emissions from waste management: landfills, composting, incineration without energy recovery and wastewater (UNFCCC category 5), in million tonnes of CO2 equivalent. National inventory reported to the UNFCCC (and, for EU members, to the EU): the seven Kyoto gases weighted by their 100-year global warming potential. Land use, land use change and forestry (LULUCF) and international aviation and shipping are not included.
- Note: Sectors follow the UNFCCC reporting categories, so they add up to the total except for indirect CO2, which is not allocated to a sector. Each annual submission recalculates the whole series back to 1990, so past values change between releases.
