This report presents greenhouse gas inventories for the European Community and its Member States, for 1990-1998. The EU has to report annual inventories to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change. The European Commission submitted the report to the UNFCCC secretariat in April 2000. Total...

This report is an indicator-based assessment of European Community and acceding and candidate countries’ greenhouse gas emission trends, emission projections and existing and proposed policies and measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2010. The report presents an assessment of the...

This report serves as the annual submission of the European Community (EC) to the UNFCCC. It presents the greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory of the EC, the EC GHG inventory process and methods and GHG inventory data of its individual Member States for 1990-2000. The GHG inventory data of the EC MS...

This report is an indicator-based assessment of European Community and acceding and candidate countries’ greenhouse gas emission trends, emission projections and existing and proposed policies and measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2010. The report presents an assessment of the...

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the European Union have increased for the second consecutive year, moving the EU further away from meeting its commitment to achieve a substantial emissions cut by the 2008-2012 period.

EU and candidate countries' progress between 1990 and 2000 towards reaching their targets under the Kyoto Protocol is assessed in this report. It shows which countries are on track, the greenhouse gas emission trends in each sector and the reasons for increases or decreases. The report supports...

The purpose of this technical report is to analyse and present the progress of the European Union (EU) as a whole towards fulfilling its greenhouse gas (GHG) emission commitments under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Kyoto Protocol, and the contribution...

This report provides a detailed analysis and background information for the EEA report 'Greenhouse gas emission trends and projections in Europe 2004: Progress by the EU and its Member States towards achieving their Kyoto Protocol targets'. The EEA report is published separately and is an...

Projections show that the pre-2004 EU Member States (EU-15) could cut their total emissions to 7.7% below 1990 levels by 2010 with existing domestic policies and measures already being implemented and additional policies and measures currently planned. Plans by six EU-15 Member States to use...

This report explores the potential ancillary benefits for air pollution - in terms of reductions in pollutant emissions and changes in control costs and environmental impacts - resulting from different ways of implementing the Kyoto climate change protocol in Europe. It is based on a comparison...
