Total GHG Emissions (CO2, CH4, N2O, HFCs, PFCs, SF6)
in 1990, 2000, 2005 and 2008
conform UNFCCC excluding short-cycle biomass burning (such as agricultural waste burning and Savannah burning) but including other biomass burning
(such as forest fires, post-burn decay, peat fires and decay of drained peatlands), and calculated with the GWP100 metric of UNFCCC (IPCC, 1996).

The
mission of the JRC is to provide customer-driven scientific and
technical support for the conception, development, implementation and
monitoring of EU policies. As a service of the European Commission, the
JRC functions as a reference centre of science and technology for the
Union. Close to the policy-making process, it serves the common
interest of the Member States, while being independent of special
interests, whether private or national.
